The Script:
In my acting career, I’ve had the chance to play some fascinating characters.
But there’s a fighter for justice in REAL life I want you to know.
He’s Jim Johnson – a progressive Democrat who’s spent his life working to bring some fairness to his community and his country.
I’ve known Jim since we were roommates at Harvard. And I’ve been inspired by watching his journey since then.
From his time as a federal prosecutor who took on the mob and won…to his tenure in Bill Clinton’s Administration battling the NRA…to his efforts to combat housing discrimination and mass incarceration…Jim Johnson has never forgotten that public service is about PEOPLE, not money.
In the race for Governor, Jim is taking that fight to the next level – with a grassroots campaign fueled not by the political machine or Goldman Sachs, but by YOU…YOUR neighbors…YOUR family.
As Governor, Jim will challenge the drug corporations to get lower costs for seniors. He’ll STOP the corporate giveaways and invest tax dollars where they’re NEEDED – Pre-K for all; expanded after-school programs; and lower property taxes.
And most of all, Jim will make sure that New Jersey’s future isn’t written by the Trenton insiders, the Wall Street big shots, or Donald Trump’s White House – but instead, by YOU.
Please join me in supporting Democrat Jim Johnson on June 6th.
