We can't afford to let funding for the Gateway Tunnel Project lapse. Our jobs, communities, and economy – not just in NJ, but around the country – depend on it.

It’s always about ego, not empathy, from this president.

“They’re dying from a lack of care.” 13,000 lives could have been saved. Every year. Trump only cares about one thing: money for himself and his friends. It’s important to call this out. Our loved ones in nursing homes deserve the utmost respect, care, and dignity.

“The funding delays have left some disaster-struck communities with little certainty of when or whether help might come.” Wasn’t this supposed to be the administration of efficiency?

Kristi Noem is unfit to serve. But it's not just her – there's a deep rot to the core of this administration.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the millions of people who were persecuted, attacked, and systemically murdered. This day asks us to reflect on the warnings of history and recommit ourselves to fight against anti-semitism and bigotry in all of its forms so it never happens again.

Over and over again, bullying and intimidation. We all see this for what it is. More Mob Boss politics.

Scenes from this weekend’s resource fair in Salem, NJ. Shout out to the vendors, Salem City, the 3rd legislative district, and the Salem County Inter Agency Council for helping us get resources around housing, food, utilities, mental health, and more to people who need them.

Don't forget: When Republicans passed their Big Disastrous Bill, they took money out of your wallet and your healthcare to fund this lawlessness and the killing of American citizens.

We are united in outrage. This needs to be a point where we say ENOUGH and refuse to vote on this DHS funding bill as it currently stands.

This family statement is absolutely devastating to read. First, it should never have had to be written. The ease with which Trump’s admin takes someone’s life, and in this case a citizen, is disgusting and wrong. 1/2

I’m not voting to fund this lawless violence. Trump’s abuse of power is tearing us apart. We have 3 years left of this presidency. Either we stand up and protect our democracy now, or we risk going down a path that is unthinkable, will hurt countless people and do irreversible damage to our country.

This is all spiraling out of control. When Trump declared war on the enemy from within and said our cities were to be training grounds, he knew exactly what he was unleashing on us. He has brought chaos and fear and made all of us less safe. This needs to stop now.

Children, vets, mothers — no one is safe from Trump’s cruelty. These can’t be our values. It doesn’t have to be this way. It simply can’t.

As the recently removed exhibit in Philadelphia read, “history is not neat.” Instead of hiding from our history, we should learn from it. I support the exhibit and what it means to American history and my neighbors across the river — an ignorant administration can’t hide the truth forever.

My father is a polio survivor. I’ve seen firsthand the lifelong damage it inflicts. Vaccines have all but eradicated these diseases. WE SOLVED THIS PROBLEM. This administration’s devotion to dangerous ideology over science will only cause more Americans to suffer.

It shouldn't take the threat of a winter storm for this admin to take disaster preparedness seriously. I led a demand to end workforce cuts at FEMA with Sen. Peters and will continue to advocate for a FEMA that is prepared to help our communities when disaster strikes.

This is a stupid decision that will make us less healthy, less safe, and less prepared to take care of our communities.

As Ranking Member of the subcommittee that oversees FEMA, I'm demanding that Sec. Noem stop the staffing cuts at FEMA immediately. Mass cuts to the FEMA workforce are reckless; they put our communities' lives and safety at risk. You deserve better.

On the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade, all Americans should have the freedom to make their own healthcare decisions. Instead, families are forced into impossible choices and doctors are threatened with criminal prosecution for following medical guidance. 1/2

It's important to talk directly to those impacted by Trump's actions in Venezuela. When I sat down with members of NJ's Venezuelan community they told me, we cannot prioritize oil over democracy.

A couple weeks ago, I spoke to some members of the Venezuelan community in NJ about the Trump administration’s actions in their home country. Here’s what they had to say.

Actions have consequences. Trump cares more about picking fights with our friends and allies than he does our own economic security. The American people want a president who cares about strengthening our economy, not throwing it into complete chaos.

As a member of the committee that oversees DHS, I’m calling on Sec. Noem and Tom Homan to testify in front of the Senate immediately. The deployment of ICE agents across the country is putting our communities at risk. You deserve answers and accountability.

As Senators, we must pledge to be caregivers. It is our responsibility to make it easier for Americans to look after each other. It will be difficult, but there is no greater cause than care.

This is just bullying. As usual, it is Americans who will pay the price for Trump’s extortion foreign policy.

First Trump dismantled USAID, now he’s cutting health aid globally. The more unhealthy the world is, the more at risk we all become.

Erfan Soltani; remember that name. He is at risk of being executed by the Iranian regime. He didn’t engage in violence; he only sought the same freedoms any of our families would want. The Iranian regime has shown it will do anything to silence its people and keep power. 1/2
