Alene S. Ammond (April 6, 1933 – June 4, 2019) was an American politician who served in the New Jersey Senate from the 6th Legislative District from 1974 to 1978.
When the mayor made a passing remark that the tax increases should be blamed on "the guys who don't pay up", Ammond and the Cherry Hill League turned their attention to tax-delinquent individuals and corporations.
[4] Within one week of Ammond exposing a list of corporations behind in municipal taxes, two-thirds of the outstanding accounts - around $700,000 - were paid in full.
However, she was part of a slate of the Camden County Democratic chair's 1973 primary ticket for the State Senate in the newly formed 6th district.
[7][8] While in the Senate, she wrote a column for Family Circle Magazine based on her previous experience in public interest lobbying.
[1] She went to Federal court, where Judge Mitchell H. Cohen upheld her charge that the ousting violated her First Amendment rights and ordered she be readmitted to the caucus.
