Socialist to Run for New Jersey Governorship
Help Support the Gregory Pason for Governor campaign!
New Jersey, It’s time for a change!

Capitalism has not delivered and we need to stop giving big business cash in hopes that profits “trickles down”. Working people in New Jersey deserve a state government which puts people before profits and guarantees basic services to all our residents. It’s time for working people to stop supporting parties and politicians, who serve big business and the wealthy, let's build a socialist alternative.

During my campaign I hope to bring forward ideas and issues being ignored by John Corzine and Chris Christie:

• socialized healthcare
• guaranteed living wage
• publicly funded education, pre-K to post secondary
• elimination of regressive sales and property taxes and a truly progressive state-wide tax system
• elimination of tax giveaways for businesses
• state-wide public jobs programs
• expanded rights for all workers
• programs which promote and support worker-community cooperative
• expansion of our mass transit system
• support for same-sex marriage and civil unions for all who want them
• expanded and guaranteed reproductive rights
• prison reform
• bring all the NJ National Guard home from overseas
