Assemblyman Gerald "Jerry" Green
Assembly Candidate, District 22
1460 Prospect Ave.
Plainfield, NJ 07060

Dear Assemblyman Green:

On behalf of the New Jersey Tenants Organization, it is my pleasure to inform you that you have received our endorsement of your candidacy for Assembly in District 22.

We believe you have satisfactorily demonstrated your concern for tenants. As an advocate for tenants' rights and interests, you warrant the praise and votes of all the tenants in your community.

We are especially gratified that you are committed to maintaining local rent control without state interference, to opposing making it easier to evict tenants from their homes, to giving tenants full credit for the property tax they pay, to opposing the false water/sewerage sub-metering bill and to supporting our real conservation approach, requiring replacement of water wasting plumbing fixtures with low flow devices that meet strict standards.

You can be proud of your commitment to upholding the rights of tenants. We look forward to your being a voice for tenants in the next legislature, after your victory!


Yours truly,

Matthew B. Shapiro
President
