UPDATE: NJ In-State Tuition Vote..CALL NOW!

We are two senators away from in-state tuition in New Jersey:


Targets:

  1. Senator Sean T. Kean  — (732) 974-0400
  2. Senator Anthony R. Bucco  — (973) 627-9700
  3. Senator Michael J. Doherty  — (908) 835-0552

ASKS:

1. Ask Senator Kean (Senate Minority Leader) to vote on in-state tuition for New Jersey’s children!
2. Request Senator Kean brings two additional votes from the republican caucus.

**Always remain polite and courteous with the staff you speak to**

3. Call the Senate Minority Office (609-292-5199) and leave a message for Senator Kean
Call-in Script:

My name is ______. I live in ______. I am a member of ________ and I support S1036 and I am urging Senator Kean to do the same. Immigrant’s rights are human rights and one of those is the right to an education. This bill is budget neutral. These children deserve the opportunity to fulfill their future promise so that they can continue to contribute to our state.

Thank you.
