The press conference on the steps of City Hall in Newark was with Mayor Ras Baraka of Newark announcing the City’s support of the Do Not Stand Idly By campaign against gun violence. The campaign’s goals include holding gun manufacturers for how guns are sold (distribution) and bringing safer guns to market (smart gun technology). The assembled crowd included clergy, mayors and organizers of the campaign. Livingston’s own Mayor Al Anthony and Chief of Police Craig Handschuch proudly represented the township with TBA members Bob Singer. TBA Social Action Chair Lisa Reisboard was also in attendance.
