When I lived in Newark, Cory Booker was my mayor.
I remember learning about him and the efforts he made to improve rent prices and other services for those in poverty.
He went on food stamps to understand what his constituents lives were like, lived in a tent to protest for the poor and homeless, and is an all around kick ass dude.
And to the rest of my wonderful state, I loved seeing all the posts cheering him on. Jersey strong stands for more than just rebuilding, it stands for strength against all opposition.
