New Jersey families sent Congressman Scott Garrett to Washington to represent their values and compassion in Congress. Today, he has shown that he represents neither. Americans from every community in the country have selflessly donated millions of dollars to help those who so desperately need food, water and medical attention. When Congress had its chance to support the effort, Congressman Garrett opposed it. |
No matter who Republicans elect, it's easy to show they're supporting more of the same ... part of the same pay-to-play system that's made Washington the mess that it is right now. |
The political environment for Republicans really couldn't get that much worse. |
They're trying to pack the house and do some sort of made-for-TV show of strength. But the bottom line is that you're spending all that money to speak to a room full of people who have already made up their minds.

We liked that look, but when the steel plates came to the house, they were hot-rolled steel, so they have a sort of blue quality. We love the blue, so now we're going about the process of finding ways to protect and keep the color the way it is. |
We're raising more money than we've ever done before and we're recruiting more candidates. |
We've got a close eye on Washington state. It seems to me that people there are rejecting the Republican agenda. |
What we're passionate about, along with Jennifer, is design from the essential elements. The raw character of the material is in full view, in its natural form, not covered by anything else. |
