“We watched then Senate President Sweeney swap out members of the Senate Health Committee - replacing representatives who had listened to informed parents and were prepared to oppose the bill - and sat in horror as he gave himself a deciding vote to ensure the passage of S2173 through committee.”
Growing up, I like many other people was taught to believe that fascism is another word for a police state. But that’s not exactly true. When Mussolini came to power in post WW1 Italy he brought with him a society overseen by the marriage of the state and corporations. The above description is fascism at work - it’s all about give and take. But rather than give power back to the people it’s taken from them and in turn given to business interests. And it always works as long as they’re kept silent and ignorant. The battle of Trenton showed how a relatively small group of honest decent individuals can come together to make a difference. In a sense it couldn’t have come at a more opportune moment. The bigger battle was right around the corner. And the fascist controllers knew that their propaganda was not going to move everybody into submission. The flame was lit and The rest is history. Congratulations to everyone who was there at the beginning.
Well said. None of us really understood what we were up against. Perhaps we were lucky. Goliath was even bigger than many imagined. I always draw hope as I reflect back on that time. And I continue to learn new lessons about the power of “stone soup” efforts.
I will never forget the various emotions I felt that week. From being angry and scared, cold and tired to feeling elated, invigorated and grateful to God for that AMAZING VICTORY!!! It was SO worth traveling from Indiana to New Jersey and back in order to stand alongside all of my brothers and sisters from around the country, to fight for medical freedom!
I remember learning that some of you had driven from Indiana. Such and act of solidarity and love. It planted a seed in my heart/mind that there is so much more love and support that I know how to imagine… that people show up in ways I can never anticipate. Such an incredible thing to discover at a moment of fear and uncertainty. Thank you 🙏😘
From that first call I received from Susan Sweetin, and the subsequent calls with Katie, Rula and Melanie in March of 2019 explaining the battlefield in Trenton. To the rally in May of that same year. To the day we proclaimed victory over the tyrannical state that tried to say religious freedom didn't exist in NJ,.... I was thankful. Thankful for the perseverance, conviction and unwavering faith that we would prevail, that God would not forsake His people. Happy anniversary, my friends. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your historic fight. God claimed victory. ❤️🙏🏻❤️
You are one of the greatest blessings that came from that time. Thank you for your beautiful spirit and friendship. I can hardly wait for our next dancing date! Love you. ❤️
