Say: Vote NO on the power grab (Res. 822-825), NO on selling public land without affordable homes (773), NO on the no-bid contract (777). SHOW UP WEDNESDAY, DEC 10, 6 PM at City Hall. Speak for 3 minutes. Bring a neighbor. They work for us. Make them remember that. #jerseycity


You elected a new mayor, but the old mayor is still trying to pull strings. No More #Politricks It's a new day in Jersey City. Show up! and Show Out!

The mayor is on the way out, but trying to lock in his people for years. The City Council is voting Wednesday to handpick who controls our redevelopment and utilities, stealing the next mayor's right to choose. #jerseycity #jerseycitynj

Under Ord. 25-110, the City would lease a privately built office tower for 25 years — paying rent, maintenance, taxes & insurance with no budget review. That’s debt without a vote. #JerseyCity #SayNo


At the very least, for $200 million, planned “enhancements” should stretch across the entire 26-block corridor of what was once Jackson Avenue — now Martin Luther King Drive. #Ord25110

If the City can find $200 M to finance new office space, it can find $200 M for affordable housing, youth programs, and small-business support. Budgets reflect priorities — and right now, this one isn’t reflecting the people. #PeopleOverPolitics #Ord25110

This vote doesn’t have to happen now. ✅ Delay the decision ✅ Hold a real community forum ✅ Release the full financing plan Public trust starts with public transparency. #NoVoteWithoutInput #ThePeoplesWardF #Ord25110


The Jackson brothers stood for self-determination, not speculation. If this City wants to honor the Jacksons, it can start by protecting Black homeownership, investing in small businesses, and creating affordable housing — not rushing another developer-led lease deal. #JerseyCity

Development isn’t the problem — unaccountable development is. We can grow Jersey City without selling its soul. Every dollar should move us toward justice, fairness, and opportunity — not deeper debt. #CommunityLed #ThePeoplesWardF #Ord25110



When Black communities gained ground, systems found new ways to take it back. Eminent domain took the Jacksons’ land. Now, decades later, their name is being used to sell a “rent-to-own” deal the people didn’t ask for. History is repeating itself — this time with a press release.

Jersey City Ordinance 25-110 proposes a multi-million-dollar “Rent-to-Own” deal for JCEDC — using taxpayer dollars to buy and build luxury offices. Read it for yourself: cityofjerseycity.civicweb.net/document/437804 This isn’t innovation, it’s indebtedness without input. #ThePeoplesWardF #JerseyCity



The Jackson brothers were formerly enslaved men who bought land in Jersey City nearly 200 years ago — land the City later seized. Now, the administration wants to “honor” them with a statue — while using their name to justify a $200M lease deal built on the land they lost.

The EDC project is being sold as “economic development.” But whose economy is being developed? If the benefits don’t reach the residents of Jersey City, it’s not development — it’s divestment from the people. #ThePeoplesWardF #StrongerTogether

10 years of silence, then 2 weeks to approve a $200M deal. If this was a Netflix show, you'd call the plot unrealistic. But it's our city council. #JerseyCity #Ord25110

They're calling it "Rent-to-Own" so it doesn't sound like a $200 million loan. It's a loan. We're the cosigners. And they won't show us the fine print. Join us Saturday at 11am to discuss this further at @EducationalGil1's Community Caucus. ThePeoplesWardF.com/caucus

If a city can "find" $200M for new offices, then it can find $200M for affordable housing. Their budget is a choice. And they're not choosing us.

Jersey City is trying to sneak through a $200 MILLION luxury office deal with our tax dollars. They gave us two weeks to read 200+ pages. Read it yourself: cityofjerseycity.civicweb.net/document/437804 This is a heist.

Today, we commemorate Indigenous Peoples’ Day. We remember the tragedies endured and triumphs experienced by those Native to this land. There is still work to be done to eradicate economic, health, and environmental disparities. #IndigenousYouth #IndigenousPeoplesDay
