(Legislative District 4, New Jersey) – Senator Anthony M. Bucco (LD-25), Republican Leader in the New Jersey Senate, and Assemblyman John DiMaio (LD-23), Assembly Minority Leader, have officially endorsed Amanda Esposito and Gerard “Jerry” McManus in their campaign for New Jersey General Assembly in the 4th Legislative District.

The endorsement from two of New Jersey’s top Republican leaders underscores the growing statewide momentum behind the Esposito & McManus team. Rooted in AMERICA FIRST principles, their platform focuses on reforming the state’s broken school funding formula, defending parental rights, supporting NJ DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) initiatives, and fostering a more business- and resident-friendly Legislative District 4. 

Esposito & McManus have taken a firm stance on public safety, pledging to keep New Jersey a
“No Sanctuary State,” and making law and order a top priority across all ten municipalities in the district, which spans three counties. 

Assembly candidate Amanda Esposito expressed deep gratitude for the endorsement, saying, “I am honored to have the support of Senator Bucco and Assemblyman DiMaio, true leaders who share our mission of restoring trust in government. Our campaign is a campaign focused on unity, vision, and bringing people together to solve problems. With their partnership, we will build a stronger, more accountable New Jersey for every family.” 

Assembly candidate Gerard “Jerry” McManus added, “These endorsements reflect our shared belief that teamwork and leadership in Trenton can make a difference. Amanda and I are ready to bring fresh ideas and real accountability to the State House. We are grateful for this vote of confidence and excited to work alongside leaders who are committed to fighting for New Jersey families.”

With the endorsement from two of Trenton’s top GOP leaders and growing support across South Jersey, Esposito and McManus are building strong momentum behind a campaign rooted in unity, accountability, and AMERICA FIRST values.
