Chai & Change: Q&A with Mussab Ali

Join us on the evening of April 3rd for Chai & Change, a community event bringing together neighbors, young professionals, small business leaders, and supporters from across the NY/NJ area.


Over chai and conversation, you’ll hear directly from Mussab Ali about why this race matters in 2026 and how grassroots organizing can defeat machine politics. Mussab is a Harvard Law graduate, cancer survivor, and the son of immigrants who is running to represent a new generation of leadership in our district.


The evening will include a fireside chat, audience Q&A, and time to connect with others who believe NJ-08 deserves bold, independent leadership.


Mussab is running on a platform centered on Medicare for All, housing affordability, immigrant dignity, and ending corporate PAC influence in politics. Events like this are how we build a movement rooted in community support, not special interests.


Your ticket directly supports a campaign that refuses corporate PAC money and relies on everyday people to win.


Date: April 3, 2026, 6 p.m. EDT
