In Episode 22 of the Union Strong: NJSPBA Voices Podcast, hosted by Vinny Rizzo, listeners continue listening to a seven-part series covering the platforms of all gubernatorial candidates ahead of the June primaries. This series, including episodes 18 through 24, stems from the Mini Convention held in early March where each candidate presented their platforms and participated in a Q&A session moderated by PBA lobbyist Rob Nixon. This episode features opening remarks by NJSPBA President Peter Andreyev and discusses the new election day voting process changes. The candidate to speak today is former Senate President Steve Sweeney, who dives into his plans regarding pensions, healthcare reform, and bail reform, followed by a direct Q&A where he responds to concerns from the delegates.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
