Real Results
At BlueWaveNJ we pride ourselves on achieving real results. Whether it is focusing on elections or specific legislative issues, we always strive to be as effective as possible.
With the support of our members and partners, we have made a huge difference. We have won major legislative victories on progressive taxation, codifying the right to an abortion, equal pay, expanded family leave, and much more. Our network and members have been critical in cultivating and supporting incredible candidates for public office grounded in the issues we strive to advance.

What's Next?
We can not let apathy dominate. With Republican in-control of all three branches of government we must focus on developing a movement that can shift legislative control in 2026 back to a responsive Democratic majority. In 2025 New Jersey must elect a governor willing to stand against Trump, and protect and expand the Democratic majority in the assembly. Cultivate a progressive state legislative caucus. Advance state legislation that can improve the lives of everyone in our state and mitigate the harm intended by the federal government.
