About Jennifer Ehrentraut
Daughter of a US Marine Corps Veteran
Hawthorne Board of Education Trustee
Jen comes from a family of Veterans, skilled union trades workers, and community servants. The American values of serving and giving back to the community, of being part of something greater, and working to make a positive impact on the lives of others are instilled in her.
With the belief that leaders are elected to represent all people, not just those with whom we agree, she intends to be a Senator you can trust to represent YOU. She will work to ensure nothing gets in the way of our shared and common goals, to make our communities and our state a better place for us all.
What Matters
Working Families
Hardworking families in our district deserve to have a voice in Trenton and to be heard by their elected officials.
Veterans
We should remember and value the sacrifices made by our Veterans and prioritize care and opportunities for them always!
Education
The quality of education and safety of our students and educators is a priority for all of us, ensuring a better future for the next generation.
First Responders
Firefighters, law enforcement officers, paramedics, emergency medical technicians save our lives everyday - we must ensure proper funding and resources for our heroes!
Organized Labor
Labor and trades unions built this country and there is power for people in the worker's unionized collective voice. Unions improve wages and working conditions for all workers.
Gun Sense
We need to enact and support common sense gun policies that will demand accountability and protect people from gun violence.
Women's Health & Reproductive Rights
Protecting every woman's decision whether or when to have children and whether to get married; where access to quality reproductive health care is guaranteed; and where every woman can make these decisions free from coercion or discrimination.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Promote "the fair treatment and full participation of all people", particularly groups "who have historically been underrepresented or subject to discrimination" on the basis of identity or disability.
LGBTQ+
We must protect and uphold the rights of LGBTQ+ people, including their right to life, freedom and safety.
