NJ Black Empowerment
NJ BEC Policy Agenda
While the NJBEC will focus on voter education around racial-justice issues and the importance of public policy, we will also seek to organize the assets of the Black community and its allies in service of a bold racial-justice policy agenda.
Promoting Racial Justice
The NJBEC and affiliated organizations are rooted in the idea that electoral politics is a critical lever to advance policies that promote racial justice, and that genuine racial equity for Black people in New Jersey isn’t possible without an agenda specially dedicated to that purpose. This agenda will be entirely policy- and outcome-based.
Every year, the NJBEC-affiliated organizations will formulate a policy agenda spanning these issues, and will implement their civic advocacy work so as to educate the public on the issues that will generate meaningful progress that move communities up the economic ladder of progress.
