Many may recall Jim's speeches at Harvest Fests 33, 34, 35, and 36, and the coffin he crafted to note the demise of Wisconsin's medical cannabis bill at HF 36 in 2006 click here. A walk across New Jersey honoring Cheryl will shepherd all New Jersey LP candidates' ballot signatures for submission at the State House in Trenton.

Jim's platform will focus on the issues of medical cannabis and health care. With New Jersey's medical cannabis bill stalled, after debuting with much fanfare in June 2006, Jim is hoping his candidacy will breathe new life into efforts to pass a bill this session, so patients like Cheryl won't have to wait until "next time,

NJLP Set to 'Walk Across New Jersey' in the name of Liberty and to honor the memory of medical marijuana advocate Cheryl Miller 2007-05-20

Dear Fellow Libertarians,

I am pleased to announce that our state meeting and our "Walk across New Jersey" has been set for May 20th. Come and join us as we send a message that the time has come for open and honest government in Trenton and the Libertarian Party plans to lead the way in this fight this coming November.

Our state meeting has been set for 10am, Sunday, May 20th, at Captain Hooks on the Boulevard in Seaside Heights. (In case of extreme weather it will be May 27th.) We will begin to gather there as we plan to make our historic march across the bridge to Trenton to deliver our candidates petitions and insure they are on the ballot this coming November. Once over the bridge we will be stopping for lunch at The Pier, 3430 Rt. 37 east, Toms River. From there we will continue on to Trenton delivering our petitions on Tuesday afternoon to election officials.

Every geographical section of the state will be represented this coming November with Libertarian candidates, and we continue to add to our numbers weekly. Led by our State Senate candidate in the 10th district Jim Miller and the memorial wheel chair, we will be traveling the same path he has taken in the past in his efforts to get medical marijuana passed. Our message will be if "the current legislators neither have the heart nor the courage to pass such legislation we have the candidates that will." See Jim and Cheryl's story at CherylHeart.org.

What better way to spend a Sunday than enjoying a (hopefully sunny morning), on the Seaside beach and boardwalk while supporting your Libertarian candidates. Bring your family and friends and make a day of it! If you are planning on attending please let me know so we can inform the restaurants and proper authorities as to the numbers expected.

Volunteers are also needed especially to make some signs, support vehicles, and joining us on the full trek. We can also use someone to get the proper permits to assemble in Trenton. Feel free to contact me at 570-878-7532 or 973-752-9164 if you are available to help.

I look forward to meeting you all on Sunday, and you will be able to follow our progress on this website.

Map and directions can be found on Google Maps.

In Liberty,
Lou Jasikoff
