For Immediate Release - September 27, 2022

 

Warren County, NJ - Today, Doug Steinhardt formally launched his campaign for Senate in New Jersey legislative district 23. He will run to succeed Senator Michael Doherty in a special election convention.

 

"Northwest New Jersey is a fortress for conservative, family values," said Steinhardt. "In Warren, Hunterdon, and Somerset Counties, those values produce strong communities, a stronger economy, and great foundations for education, families and children. But liberal politicians in Washington and Trenton are eroding those values and injecting their woke policies into every corner of life. As Senator, I will fight for New Jersey families, stand up to the Trenton swamp, and make the 23rd legislative district a safe and affordable place to call home.”

 

Steinhardt is out of the gate with a strong conservative platform of priorities:

• A Northwest New Jersey Check On Liberal Spending

• Giving Parents a Voice

• Supporting Police and Cracking Down on Crime

• Pro Second Amendment

• Protecting the Sanctity of Life

• Putting America and New Jersey First
