Mercer Alliance to End Homelessness

ON NOV. 4, CALL YOUR ASSEMBLY MEMBERS & LEADERS & TELL THEM, "A.3447 WILL NOT BUILD THE HOMES NJ NEEDS!"

On Thurs, Nov. 4, join the Housing & Community Development Network of NJ members and allies in calling your local Assembly members and the leadership. It only takes a few moments to call and let them know that A.3447 will not build the homes New Jersey needs!

It is easy to call your representatives and the Assembly leaders.

1. See below for contact info. Call the members who represent where you work and those who represent where you live!

2. Use the following suggested language with the person who answers the phone: "I live (and/or work) in the district, and I am calling because A.3447 does not build the homes New Jersey needs. Every community should have a responsibility to include residents who want to live there. We need more starter homes and family rentals, not McMansions. I want my Assembly member(s) (and leaders) to do better. I urge them to fix A.3447 so working families, seniors and people with special needs can live and work here."

3. Leave your name, address and phone number.

4. Visit the Housing & Community Development Network of NJ’s Facebook site (www.facebook.com/hcdnnj) and report the results of your organization’s calls, including the number of calls made and the responses you get. OR email us, at acohen@hcdnnj.org.

5. SPREAD THE WORD! Please ask your consumers, colleagues, friends and family to do the same.
