It was great to connect with Celltrion at the Capitol after visiting their Branchburg, NJ facility earlier this year. I heard about the progress they're making on manufacturing, research, and development, and what more can be done to enhance investment in New Jersey.

I met with NJEA to discuss the needs of educators in New Jersey and learn about the challenges they’re facing, including ICE presence around schools and bus stops. Every kid deserves to feel safe going to school and we must do everything we can to support teachers and students.

A weakening labor market, rising gas prices, and elevated inflation is crushing Americans - This is Trump's economy. His “golden age” works only for the wealthy, not YOU.

I met with high school and college students from NJ Future Farmers of America and was so inspired by their passion for agriculture. I know they will make the Garden State proud and I'll continue to support this critical sector that provides so much to our communities.

Today is the 61st anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 which protected voting rights for marginalized communities, including racial, ethnic, and language minorities. We must continue to put measures in place to protect our rights and make it easier, not harder, to vote.

In New Jersey, we stand up for one another. Know your rights.

This National Health Center Week, I’m grateful for the care Community Health Centers (CHCs) provide to millions of people in this country. I believe everyone should have access to healthcare and am committed to working alongside our CHCs to build a healthier future for all.

When Democrats stand up for the American people, we can deliver for them; that’s what this continuing resolution does. It not only keeps the government open, it stands in the way of Donald Trump weaponizing this funding for his extreme political agenda.

When anyone tries to skirt regulations on the road, it can cost lives. I introduced the SAFE Act to ensure that unsafe trucking companies are held accountable and that road safety comes first. This will also allow truckers to keep our economy moving with greater peace of mind.

We are moving in the WRONG direction when it comes to kids' healthcare coverage. MediKids would remove the cost burden on states and ensure that every kid has healthcare, no exceptions.

During my visit to the RAIN Foundation House, I heard from current residents about the hope that this place has given them and the importance of investing in the services that help them thrive. Read more about it here.

Happy National Farmers Market Week! Farmers markets provide spaces for communities to gather while enjoying delicious food and fresh produce. There’s no better place to celebrate than the Garden State. Thank you to all the farmers back home who fuel our farmers markets!

It was an honor to sit down with ROK Trade Minister Yeo Han-Koo and convey Congress' bipartisan support for the U.S.-ROK partnership. We discussed Korea's investment in U.S. shipbuilding and strategic industries, and I look forward to deepening this investment in New Jersey.

I know I'm not the only one who feels incredible anxiety about the cost of healthcare. That's why I introduced MediKids.

MediKids is a real path to universal healthcare for all children in America. I responded to the Washington Post’s Editorial Board on why MediKids won’t just close the gap of uninsured kids, but raise the bar for all. Read the full letter: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

I’ve worked in the Situation Room and seen the critical role the DNI plays in our national security. We don’t need yet another “yes man” to this president. That’s why I voted against Jay Clayton.

Everyone should have the freedom to decide when and if to start a family. I sat down with @reproductivefreedomforall.org to discuss the state of abortion access nationally and how we can work together to enshrine federal protections for reproductive healthcare.

Like most parents, I have a lot of anxiety about keeping my two boys safe from dangers online as they grow up in a world full of ever-evolving technology. We owe it to parents and kids to put guardrails in place against invasive child data collection before more harm is done. 1/2

I recently spoke with NephCure about their work on rare kidney diseases. We need to increase access to early diagnosis and educate medical providers on the best treatments. We should always think about how to increase access to care so all Americans can live healthy lives.

Very grateful to receive First Focus Campaign for Children's support for MediKids. This is a compelling case for why we need to act NOW to ensure all kids have healthcare — and coverage that addresses kids’ particular needs on pediatric, dental, vision, and behavioral care.

We don't have to guess anymore. They admitted it in court. It’s not a budget decision, it's the weaponization of government. This administration shows us time and time again they only care about one person — and that person only cares about himself.

Did you know that 1 in 3 kids are underinsured? This means about 23 million kids' healthcare is unable to meet their needs. MediKids solves this problem by guaranteeing comprehensive healthcare for EVERY child. It’s a no-brainer.

Details of the U.S.-Saudi civil nuclear deal the Trump administration reached are unclear. Less than a day after the administration announced a deal, Trump announced two major amendments that Saudis dispute. THREAD

I love connecting with New Jerseyans at the Capitol and yesterday's Rutgers summer reception for students, internship supervisors, and alumni was no exception! It's always a joy to hear how NJ students are spending their summers and what they're setting out to achieve.

Owning a home is out of reach, the average age of a first time homebuyer is 40. I'm proud the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is now law – to help lower costs and put the American Dream of homeownership back within reach.

This is a jarring visual every American should see. Trump has made $2.24 BILLION as President. Trump gets richer while you pay more for everything. Corruption like we've never seen.

This bill is a joke. It’s full of loopholes that let politicians continue to get rich off their positions. Want to clean up corruption? My bill bans stock trading across all three branches and goes even further. We don’t have to settle for performance. We can see through it and we can do better.
