Welcome, from Chairman John Currie:

Dear friends,

Passaic County is a special place.  From the 3rd largest city in our state in Paterson, to the vast woodlands and watersheds of West Milford, and everything in beyond, it is truly a cross-section not just of New Jersey, but of America.  Many of our residents have deep family roots here spanning back several generations, while others look to us as a destination to lay the foundation for a new and prosperous future. 

The Passaic County Democratic Committee, and I as Chairman, hold the firm belief that there is a place for everyone here, and are committed to providing the best services and quality of life possible for every one of our residents.  Public safety, maintaining and upgrading county roads and parks, workforce development and job training, social services, and a top-rate Technical Highschool and County College are just some of the services Passaic County provides for our residents.  We know you work hard for your money, and are proud to have a strong record of sound financial management while providing quality services, as recognized by multiple independent credit agencies.  Under the guidance of the Democratic Board of County Commissioners, Passaic County will have no tax increase for the third straight year, and four out of the last five.

Please explore our website and be sure to follow our social media accounts to learn more about our party and to learn how YOU can get involved!

John Currie

Passaic County Democratic Chairman
