JUSTICE, JUSTICE THOU SHALL PURSUE! Our newly formed non-profit organization will be guided and dedicated to this principle. The long road to the national abolition of the death penalty has been traveled by many citizens from different paths. All are now walking together on this single roadway and “The Road to Justice and Peace” organization will be an active and prominent role in this effort.

Our organization will provide meaningful support across the nation for families of murder victims who need assistance, to lobby and convince the other 37 states to follow our path to stop executions, to work with other local and state national organizations in this quest and to develop workable plans for alternatives to incarceration.

Recently, with a historic single press of a voting button, the New Jersey legislature joined the march with citizens to repeal the death penalty. Governor Jon Corzine with a careful stroke of his pen signed this legislation and with this act brought New Jersey’s justice system out of the dark ages and into the bright sunlight of the 21st century.

The Founder of our non-profit organization is New Jersey State Senator Raymond J. Lesniak who sponsored the legislation that ended the death penalty in New Jersey. It is his belief that this movement needs a vehicle to continue this effort nationwide. Our organization can be the voice to not only carry this message of abolition of the death penalty, but also to have a role in helping those who are impacted in our criminal justice system.

Please join us as volunteers in this effort and also to provide a donation which is fully tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
