IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR:
COUNCILWOMAN REBECCA WILLIAMS/NEW DEMS
Previously, when the
Robinson-Briggs Administration was in office, one late night, residents said
they saw Councilwoman Rebecca Williams, Councilman Adrian Mapp and some other
members of the New Democrats committing an illegal act. You remember when they posted on the poles
around the Union County Building and on the utility poles around downtown, pink
flyers that had lies such as Mayor Robinson-Briggs was missing when the people
of Plainfield needed her most. Let’s do
our own examination, point by point:
·
Rebecca wrote that Mayor
Sharon Robinson-Briggs was missing in action in the war on crime. THE
TRUTH IS Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs was the elected official who openly
addressed the crime situation head on and dealt with it on a daily basis until
gangs formed a truce. That’s what
leaders do. What did Rebecca and the New
Dems do to help the community?
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING? She and
others refused to join the former Mayor in going out to speak to our residents.
·
Rebecca wrote that the
former Mayor was out of touch by spending thousands of tax dollars without
council approval. THE TRUTH IS that the former Mayor could legally spend funds to help
the community, and council approval wasn’t required. That’s why when Rebecca
Williams, Adrian Mapp, Cory Storch and Annie
McWilliams reported the former Mayor to the Authorities for reprimand or
removal because funds were spent on anti-gang initiatives, NOTHING
HAPPENED! The former Mayor did nothing
wrong…just supported the people of Plainfield. Rebecca wouldn’t vote to spend
money to help Plainfield, yet she has eagerly voted continuously to help Adrian
Mapp spend an extra one million dollars on their political friends, for city
paid salaries! What a hypocrite!
·
Rebecca wrote that
former Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs disappeared during Hurricane Sandy
disaster, leaving the people in the dark.
THE TRUTH IS
When our community was devastated by Hurricane
Irene, Hurricane Sandy and a nor-easter, many NAACP’ers, community volunteers
and Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs could be seen OUTSIDE IN THE COMMUNITY, day
and night. Where was Councilwoman Rebecca
Williams? Doing what many feel she is
great at doing, she was abusing the generosity of a local business owner by
setting up shop in his cafe, using his generator for free electricity for her
computer and cell phone, while dining on his daily homemade meals and free
soup. Rebecca knew that she should have utilized the generator at the Police
Station, but SHE wanted the comfort of home…on someone else’s dime.
When will this elected
official, Rebecca Williams, aka Cousin Becky, learn that she should always put
the people of our community, those who entrusted her with their vote, first? When she finally decided to come out and
speak with residents, she handed out a few copies of the multi-page,
informational report which was PREPARED by former Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs,
which Cousin Becky of course was passing it out as “her own”. She didn’t even bother to come to the daily
city briefings scheduled by the former administration with members and
volunteers and stakeholders regarding emergency management. She didn’t help our
residents, but guess who did, many others including former Mayor Sharon
Robinson-Briggs, who residents will remember her bringing them blankets and
supplies to their homes, many senior citizens will remember her bringing them
food when they had none, many members of Salvation Army and Angels for Action
will remember Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs partnership with them for the
benefit of the community. So, where was
Rebecca Williams during all of these disasters, somewhere sharpening her fangs
for an attack on some undeserving victim!
Plainfield, 2nd and 3rd Ward residents, “Dump
Rebecca” as she has done to you for years.
