My name is Analilia Mejia, and I'm running for Congress in New
Jersey's 11th District because I believe this moment requires bold and
fearless leadership to restore our nation.
I am the daughter of Colombian and Dominican immigrants — a Jersey
girl raised by a strong family who survived hardship with
determination, grit, and deep love. I'm the daughter of a seamstress
and a factory worker who taught me that none of us make it alone and
we owe our best to each other.
I've spent my entire life fighting for working families like ours.
Here in New Jersey, I helped lead the fights for a $15 minimum wage,
paid sick leave, and a millionaire's tax — and we won every one of
those battles. I was a union organizer and I led the Working Families
Party statewide where I learned the incredible force organized
everyday people can be. I served as National Political Director for
Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign. And under the Biden
Administration, I was Deputy Director of the Women's Bureau at the
Department of Labor. Today, I serve as Co-Executive Director of
Popular Democracy, helping communities across the country push back
against Trump and fight to restore the promise of a just democracy.

Analilia Mejia is a progressive leader who will fight, not fold.
The daughter of immigrants, Analilia Mejia has seen the transformative power a union job can have for working families. It was her mother’s union job as a garment worker that allowed her family to achieve the kind of stability that let Mejia attend Rutgers University. After graduation, Mejia became a union organizer herself. She would later go on to be the Director of the New Jersey Working Families Alliance, where she fought for the right to paid sick leave, a millionaire tax, and raising the minimum wage. Eventually, Analilia served as the National Political Director on Sen. Bernie Sanders’ 2020 presidential campaign, and was later appointed Deputy Director of the United States Women’s Bureau in the US Department of Labor.
Now, Analilia is running for Congress to give the people of New Jersey’s 11th district a representative who’s not afraid to hold the corrupt accountable and make government work for working families, not the wealthy and well-connected.
Refusing to turn a blind eye to injustice anywhere, Analilia believes ICE is beyond reform and has called for its abolition, has criticized Israel’s government for human rights violations and war crimes, and has fought hard for working people against the interests of politicians who care more about donors than those who lack deep pockets. She’ll bring that same clear-eyed, people-first perspective to Congress.
Indivisibles of Montclair Sundays have endorsed Analilia Mejia because, in the battle against fascism, we need leaders like her. We’re proud to stand with Indivisibles of Montclair Sundays to support Mejia in her run to be the next Representative for New Jersey’s 11th district.
