Catherine Healy (lawyer) is an American local politician and the daughter of former mayor of Jersey City, New Jersey, Jerramiah T. Healy. She is a current city council candidate for Ward D, running on a slate with former New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevy.[1]
Early life and education
Catherine Healy was born to Jerramiah T. and Maureen Healy. She grew up in the Heights section of Jersey City[1] with siblings Jeremiah, Susanne, and Patrick. Healy earned a Bachelor of Arts from Catawba College in Salisbury, North Carolina in 2004,[2] and her law degree from Seton Hall University School of Law in Newark.[3]
Career
Healy passed the New Jersey bar in 2009.[4] She was an Assistant Prosecutor in the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office where she tried criminal cases. Healy founded and ran the Healy Law Office, a pro bono defense practice.[3]
Jersey City Council campaign
During the debate with her opponent Jake Ephros that streamed online on November 21, 2025, Healy stated that she was against universal rent control.[5]
In response to the $35,000 McGreevey took from one of the landowners of Heights University Hospital,[6] she said “Just because someone donates to our campaign, we don’t acquiese to everything they request.”[5] When Ephros asserted that McGreevey and his slate had MAGA donors, Healy said, “Charlie Kushner has always been involved in New Jersey politics” and that he donates to all candidates.[5]
