Our troops are in harms way when Trump and Hegseth have no strategy and no plan.

It was wonderful to meet Grace and Neeka, New Jersey’s delegates to the Senate Youth Program. Their accomplishments are incredibly impressive and I can’t wait to see what they achieve next. Thanks for making NJ proud!

I co-led the creation of the Civilian Protection Center of Excellence to ensure greater investment in the safety of civilians during military strikes. Trump and Hegseth gutted it. They are responsible for this tragedy. They must be held accountable.

The price tag for Trump's war in Iran is $1 billion PER DAY. That’d be able to cover: The cost of Medicaid for all 16 million people expected to lose it AND daily food stamps for all 41 million people who rely on them. Trump chose a war without a plan over you.

It was great to meet with Prime Minister Minseok Kim of South Korea as well as Ambassador Kang Kyung-wha. The U.S.-ROK alliance is critically important to NJ and our country, and one we should continue to foster and grow. 1/3

Heartbroken to learn of the loss of the final 2 service members that search and rescue was looking for. May we grieve for them and their families today.

Costs are ⬆️. Inflation is ⬆️. Economic growth is ⬇️. We are all feeling the squeeze of Trump’s tariffs, of higher prices as a result of Republican budget cuts, and of this war in Iran. You deserve a government that works for you, not against you.

Heartbroken to learn of the loss of 4 U.S. service members after a mid-air accident over Iraq. I'm grateful for the diligent work for our search and rescue personnel and hoping for a quick recovery of the remaining two service members. 1/2

Trump is spending $1 billion per day in taxpayer dollars on his war in Iran. Here's what people in New Jersey said they'd rather see their money spent on.

It’s unacceptable that while so many struggle to afford everyday expenses, those at the top still aren’t paying their fair share. That’s why I helped introduce the Working Americans’ Tax Cut Act to deliver real relief to working families.

We are now a nation at war and Republicans refuse to fund our country's cybersecurity agency. We can fund these separate sections of DHS and continue to hold this administration accountable. Republicans just refuse to do so.

New Jersey stands with West Bloomfield in the aftermath of this horrible and frightening attack, and we hope all families affected are safe and secure. 1/3

Trump’s war is making it harder for you to buy a house.

Please stop these attacks on our fellow Americans and communities in our nation. Islamophobia fuels hate and violence. Equating Muslims to terrorists and accusing an elected official of being a threat are unacceptable and against the oath we swore to become Senators.

I’m proud to have delivered housing wins in the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that just passed the Senate. It’s time we come together to get this bipartisan legislation across the finish line.

The Trump Administration is making this war up as they go. Americans are the ones who pay the price for Trump's war tax.

Scammers are preying on seniors, stealing billions from Americans’ retirement savings. We need to confront these crimes. That’s why I helped introduce the Senior Security Act to stop financial predators and protect your savings.

Donald Trump won't tell you his plan in Iran. It's because he doesn't have one.

Three years ago, I helped write a law that created a Civilian Protection Center at the Pentagon. Last year, Hegseth gutted it. 1/2

Excited to share we secured $97.5 million in federal funding for projects across NJ! These projects will upgrade our infrastructure, support our seniors, and help families in need. I'll keep fighting to return your taxpayer dollars to you so NJ gets the support it deserves.

You shouldn't have to save until you're 40 to be able to buy a home. That’s why I worked with colleagues from both sides of the aisle to craft the 21st Century ROAD to Housing package. It's time to get it passed.

Trump doesn't want you to understand the costs of war.

I'm going to let you in on a little secret: the Trump Administration is using classified briefings as an excuse to hide the truth from you. They don't have a plan for this war. They don't have a plan to lower your costs. They just don't want to admit it publicly.

We shouldn't put American troops on the ground in Iran. I've seen no real plan to keep them safe. I've worked in Iraq and Afghanistan and I know how dangerous this would be.

From Roots to Star Trek to Reading Rainbow, @levarburton.bsky.social knows firsthand the power of storytelling. It's an honor to have his endorsement of Open Doors, Open Books Act, legislation I've introduced in Congress to ensure every kid is able to access books & unlock the power of reading.

Nearly half of children in the U.S. live in neighborhoods that lack public libraries, stores that sell books, or homes without books. That is why I'm introducing the Open Books, Open Doors Act to unlock the opportunity and promise of reading for millions of children.

There’s no such thing as too many people having access to healthcare. Everyone should have healthcare.

It was great to meet with NJ VFW to discuss how we can work together to strengthen healthcare and financial services for veterans across NJ. I remain deeply committed to learning about the barriers NJ veterans face in accessing their benefits and working towards solutions in Congress.

To any Americans stuck abroad right now, I will keep fighting until every one of you is safely back home. Please use my office as a resource for travel assistance and updated advisories. I know this is a scary, uncertain situation. I will keep you updated with info as I get it.

We need public hearings on this war. The Trump Administration can’t keep hiding behind classified briefings. It’s time for them to answer questions in front of the American people.

On the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday, we remember the hundreds of peaceful protestors who were beaten and brutalized as they marched for the freedom to vote. Their bravery and resilience continues to inspire us today and reminds us to never give up.

Noem’s DHS made our country weaker. With their new nominee, does the Trump administration have any plans to fix what they’ve broken? I’m not holding my breath.

Six who have given their lives for our nation in this war. Let their sacrifice be a unifying force that teaches us that we are a part of something bigger than all of us. May these heroes rest in peace.

I appreciated the chance to speak with the American Association of Port Authorities in DC. We discussed how we can work together to enhance the resilience of our port infrastructure and ensure our ports have what they need to drive our economic development.

Americans are trapped abroad because of this administration’s failure to plan ahead. My office is hearing from New Jerseyans who are still stuck in the region and some who have made it home on commercial flights. In need of support? Get in touch with us at kim.senate.gov.

Noem may be gone, but Trump’s administration still refuses to take accountability. A new Secretary will not guarantee any less lawlessness when Trump and Miller run the show.

This is completely unacceptable. Working families deserve housing that's actually affordable. That’s why I worked to craft the 21st Century ROAD to Housing package. I've been ready to pass it since last year. It's time to get it over the finish line.

Trump’s economy has ruined the job market - everyone feels it. All while his tariff policy raises prices, his war in Iran is costing us more at the pump, and him, his family, and billionaires get richer. So much for a golden age.

Trump cares more about the people he appoints to his cabinet fawning over him than he does the safety of Americans.

It was great to sit down with Taiwan's Representative to the U.S., Alexander Yui, today. I appreciated the opportunity to reiterate my support for the U.S.'s economic partnership with Taiwan and to have a productive conversation about our shared priority around security in the Indo-Pacific.
