UPDATED: Rebecca recognized as No. 2 in 2019 NJ LGBTQ Power List

UPDATED to reflect all the New Democrats elected. Plainfield's own Rebecca Williams snagged the number 2 spot in Insider NJ's 2019 LGBTQ Power 100 listing.

This is the second year of the list, and the first in which Rebecca came in at the top (number 1 is Trenton mayor and former Assemblyman Reed Gusciora).

Rebecca, who is currently serving as a Union County Freeholder (and is on the November ballot for a term in her own right), is one of the original New Democrats and began her public service as a Council member at-large for Wards 2 and 3.

Rebecca Williams, Cory Storch, Rayland Van Blake, Linda Carter, Adrian Mapp (now Mayor), and Annie McWilliams were among the New Dems to be elected to the Council and worked tirelessly for years to overcome Assemblyman Jerry Green's control of that body.

Upon the passing of Assemblyman Green, Rebecca was the choice of the Union County Democratic Committee to fill the balance of his term.

In her day job, Rebecca is a professor of English at Essex County College.

Congratulations Rebecca!
