Why Vote For Me:
In my early 20s I became a social and political activist. I was involved in the Civil Rights Movement and was an early opponent of the Viet Nam War. I began speaking out against the Iraq War before it began and am an active advocate against the repressive and illegal actions of the current administration.
I think it is incumbent on all elected officials to promote constituents' rights to a fair and impartial judicial system, privacy, economic and social justice, access to education, good jobs, health care.
Bergen County is a great place to live and raise families -- for most. We can -- and should -- do better regarding homelessness, hunger, low-cost housing, education and job opportunities.
Vote for Alvin Meyer in November. Vote Green Party. We advocate for you.
