For Immediate Release:
February 19, 2026,
On November 11th, 2025 President Trump signed off on the “Epstein Files Transparency Act”. This law required the Justice Department to release unclassified and searchable versions of all files relating to the alleged perpetrators within 30 days of its passage and for the AG to submit a report to both the House and Senate Judiciary Committees. Since its passage AG Bondi has failed to meet the timeline and those documents that were released were redacted to obscene levels.

The New Jersey Libertarian Party Calls for the Immediate Abolition of ICE, and the Impeachment of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and ICE Director Todd Lyons
Nothing should arouse the ire of a libertarian more than having federal agents detaining people on the streets without probable cause. ICE agents have been canvassing the streets of New Jersey performing warrantless raids on homes and businesses. The have been sweeping up citizens, documented immigrants, and undocumented immigrants. We are witnessing the transformation of our communities into zones where "show me your papers" is no longer a dystopian trope, but a daily requirement.
Within the past week alone, the tactics used by federal agents have mirrored those of authoritarian regimes.
In November 2025, and as previously published by the New Jersey Libertarian Party, the Preempted Ordinance Repeal Project intervened in Barrington Borough's consideration of a proposed "parental responsibility" ordinance after identifying serious due-process concerns in the draft law.
As originally written, Ordinance 1219 included language that would have subjected parents to municipal court summonses based largely on the conduct of their children. Specifically, if a juvenile committed a second offense within a defined period, the ordinance authorized proceedings against the parent for an alleged lack of supervision. The ordinance defined "offenses against the public peace, safety and morals" broadly, including conduct such as "being a disorderly person." Upon a second offense, the parent was effectively presumed guilty and required to rebut that presumption.

By 2026 one truth should be impossible to ignore no institution is coming to save your health. Not the government, not Big Pharma, not the latest app wearable or headline grabbing guideline. Health has always been and will remain a profoundly personal responsibility. A libertarian view of wellness does not reject science or community; it rejects the illusion that freedom can be outsourced.
Being healthy in 2026 means reclaiming ownership of your body in a world that profits from your dependency.
The modern health system is excellent at crisis management and terrible at cultivating resilience. It treats symptoms well but incentives rarely reward prevention strength or long-term vitality. If you want to thrive not merely survive you must opt out of passive consumption and opt into active participation. That starts with movement. Humans were designed to move daily not occasionally. Strength training walking sprinting mobility work these are not fitness trends they are biological necessities. You do not need permission to lift weights take the stairs or challenge your comfort zone. You need discipline.
Nutrition in 2026 should be guided less by food pyramids and more by personal experimentation. Centralized dietary dogma has failed repeatedly because people are not averages. Real health comes from eating whole unprocessed foods prioritizing protein healthy fats and vegetables and paying attention to how your body responds. Read labels. Question marketing. If a product needs a government subsidy or a cartoon mascot to survive it probably does not belong in your body. Food is information not entertainment.
As Chair of the New Jersey Libertarian Party, I must address the alarming justification now being offered for the United States’ military removal of Venezuela’s head of state.
In recent public remarks, a sitting United States senator declared, “The days of narco terrorist thugs and tinpot third world dictators down south pushing us around are over. We are a superpower. This is our hemisphere. And we are going to start acting like it again. President Trump is taking back control.”

The Assembly Judiciary Committee is scheduled to hear several bills on Monday, January 5, 2026, at 1:00 p.m., in Committee Room 12 on the fourth floor of the State House Annex in Trenton.
One bill on the agenda is A4674, which would amend New Jersey's cyber-harassment statute to elevate what is ordinarily a fourth-degree crime to a third-degree crime whenever the alleged target of the cyber-harassment is a "public servant" or a member of a public servant's family. The bill defines "public servant" broadly and includes not only elected officials and judges, but also appointed officials, public employees, and others performing governmental functions.

In the United States, most medical research is influenced, directed, and funded by two powerful forces: the federal government and the pharmaceutical industry. Together, they shape not only what gets studied, but what ultimately reaches patients. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is the largest public funder of biomedical research in the country, while major pharmaceutical companies provide enormous private funding for drug development and clinical trials. This relationship has created a system where public institutions and private corporations effectively control the direction of modern medicine.
The NIH primarily funds early stage research. Scientists apply for grants to study disease mechanisms, identify targets for treatment, and test initial concepts. This work is carried out in universities, teaching hospitals, and research institutes across the country. Because the NIH controls such a large portion of grant funding, it also influences what research topics are prioritized. Areas that align with mainstream models of disease and treatment, especially drug based solutions, are more likely to receive consistent funding than alternative or non pharmaceutical approaches.
Pharmaceutical companies step in once a discovery shows commercial potential. They fund later stage studies, large scale clinical trials, and regulatory approval processes. These stages are tremendously expensive and are rarely paid for by government grants alone. This means that if a potential therapy does not fit a profitable business model, it is far less likely to advance, even if it shows promise. As a result, the majority of treatments that reach the market are designed around patentable drugs rather than low-cost lifestyle, nutritional, or mechanical interventions.

The Open Government Advocacy Project is a committee of the NJ Libertarian Party. Its goal is to ensure transparency and accountability at all levels of government. Articles posted here are a subset of the work of the committee. For more information visit the Open Government Advocacy Project blog.
If you would like to demand accountability and ensure that your local governing body or school board adheres to the Open Public Records Act we can help you request information from them. Contact John Paff, the project chair here.
NJ government is huge and complex. Private industry is shrinking while the size and cost of government bureacracy continues to grow. The articles posted here provide a guide of the NJ State Government and can be used by citizens and candidates for office to evaluate what departments can be reduced drastically in size.
We'll start with just some of the departments and provide a breakdown on what they do (or purport to do), how many employees they have and how big their budget is.
The New Jersey Libertarian Party's Preempted Ordinance Repeal Project (“the Project”) seeks to get New Jersey municipalities to repeal loitering ordinances that should have been -- but were not -- repealed when the New Jersey Code of Criminal Justice was enacted in 1979. The Project has successfully had loitering ordinances repealed in over 30 towns. For a summary listing of all the towns see Preempted Ordinance Repeal Project page.
The Police Accountability Project is a committee of the NJ Libertarian Party. Its goal is to search out cases of police misconduct, file former Internal Affairs (IA) complaints when appropriate, and to publicize violations of rules and laws by the police. There may be other stories posted on the NJLP Police Internal Affairs Complaint Blog page.
If you would like to help or know of a case we should be looking at, contact the committee at
The Legislative Affairs Committee was created to allow a select core of Volunteers to take action on legislation and policies which directly affects the people of New Jersey.
