Constitutionality Issue Regarding the Recall of US Senators

On behalf of the Committee to Recall Senator Menendez, I would like to state that the Committee is aware of the Constitutional questions regarding the recall of a US Senator and we are prepared to address those questions at the appropriate time.

However, the Constitutional question is not to be construed as the legal issue encountered with the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State is neither court nor jury and ruling on legal argument is not within their purview. State law requires that the Secretary of State either approve or deny the submitted petitions based on wether the petitions conform to the clearly defined state statute. At this point, this is not a Constitutional issue - it is a matter of the Secretary of State complying with NJ laws.

To keep abreast of what's happening with the recall, visit either: www.njteapartiesunited.org or njrecallnow.blogspot.com. At either site you can view the prepared Press Release that we encourage everyone to circulate.
