thanks for everyone who called and emailed the mayor's and the council member's offices ... even if they cannot read, they should be able to understand that collective message we are sending to them ...

Not surprisingly, the only response I received so far was from Fulop (and within an hour) and I only cc'd him on the letter to the mayor. I cc'd all their aides, too, assuming the aides are the ones who may actually sort through the emails...

I feel like it might be ambitious to believe that citizens can really affect politics in a place like Jersey City, or Hudson County for that matter. These people are part of a machine, and that machine seems to operate according to its own desires. That being said, It doesn't hurt to try!

Not sure some of them are competent enough to use email. Flood would probably fall asleep at the computer.
Gaughan once said when a resident mentioned they sent him an email, that he did not use email and email was for yuppies. Not sure Brennan is sharp enough to use email either. Lopez might be able to use email, but most likely would need a manual of instructions, sort of like the manual she used during the campaign debates, reading line for line from it never looking at the people in audience. How embarrassing that this is some of the make up of our City Council. Quote:

Thanks for the list. I sent emails to most of them (and their aides). Do you think they actually read their emails?

You definitely want to contact 5 of the choices above because that is how many levers were available in the voting booth when you chose who were to fill the seats they now fill. Whether you voted for them or not they now hold the ace on the tax scene here in J.C. Ultimately all 9 council members decide the fate of the entire city.

There are multiple ways we can demonstrate our dissatisfaction with the Mayor, the members of the City Council, and the current political power structure of the City.
We need change, and one of the ways we can effect change is by going to city council meetings. Another alternative is to call the Mayor and members of the City Council every day and demand that they resign, lower taxes, provide better service, take a pay cut, etc. Name, contact information to the Mayor and the members of the council are Mayor Jerramiah Healy MayorHealy@jcnj.org Tel: (201) 547-5200 Fax: (201) 547-4288/5442 Council President Peter Brennan BrennanP@jcnj.org Tel: (201) 547-5319 Fax: (201) 547-4678 Robert Noakes, Council Aide NoakesR@jcnj.org Tel: (201) 547-5363 Councilwoman-at-Large Willie Flood Tel: (201) 547-5134 Fax: (201) 547-4678 FloodW@jcnj.org Annie Jenkins, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5108 Councilman-at-Large Mariano Vega, Jr. Tel: (201) 547-5268 mariano@jcnj.org Hilario Nu?ez, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5458 hnunez@jcnj.org Ward A (Greenville) Councilman Michael Sottolano Tel: (201) 547-5098 SottolanoM@jcnj.org Robert Rybinski, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5060 RybinskiR@jcnj.org Ward B (West Side) Councilman David Donnelly Tel: (201) 547-5092 DonnellyD@jcnj.om Khemraj "Chico" Ramchal, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5101 DonnellyD@jcnj.org Ward C (Journal Square) Councilwoman Nidia Lopez Tel: (201) 547-5159 NLopez@jcnj.org Kerry Jicha, Council Aide Ward D (The Heights) Councilman William Gaughan Tel: (201) 547-5485 bgaughan@hcnj.us Bridget Gaughan, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-6817 Ward E (Downtown) Councilman Steven Fulop Tel: (201) 547-5315 FulopS@jcnj.org Pam Andes, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5315 pandes@jcnj.org Ward F (Bergen/Lafayette) Councilwoman Viola Richardson Tel: (201) 547-5338 RichardsonV@jcnj.org Lorenzo Richardson, Council Aide Tel: (201) 547-5361 If you have a moment during your day, spend a minute and call any of them to tell how negatively these proposed tax increases are affecting you and your family. They need to hear our voices and they need to start listening to our ideas.
