This temporary restraining order is just the first step in restoring funding for the Gateway Tunnel Project. We will continue fighting to hold Trump accountable and get the project up and running again, and New Jerseyans back to work.

Yesterday, I met with South Korea’s Foreign Minister Cho Hyun. The U.S.-ROK alliance is critical. Our collective futures will be stronger if we work together to strengthen our national security and economies, as well as expand shipbuilding and other technological partnerships.

Today, work on the Gateway Tunnel Project goes "shovels down" as Trump illegally withholds funds for this critical tunnel. This is about thousands of jobs and over 200,000 commuters. There's no time to waste on this project.

American families desperately need lower prices and this administration wants to play the blame game. Bessent’s focus should be on bettering our economy, not spinning lies on Trump’s behalf.

Career federal workers serve the American people, not Trump, this administration, or any other president. No wonder Trump wants to get rid of them. This is yet another power grab and attack against our public servants.

1 more day until work stops on the Gateway Tunnel Project unless this administration unfreezes the funds. Here's the impact we could be losing if we don't act now.

Soaring inflation. Blatantly political appointees. This administration has attacked the Fed’s independence. No wonder Americans don’t trust it. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/04/u...

Warsh would join the long line of appointees more allegiant to Trump than the independence of their position. That’s why I’ve called for the delay of his nomination hearing until the political investigations of Powell and Cook are closed. We must demand an independent Fed.

My family was not prepared for my father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis. No family is. We need a healthcare system that better supports us.

Gateway is critical to my home state of New Jersey and the greater NY/NJ region. We have 2 days until funding runs out. I've talked with commuters, mayors, and construction workers. We all want this project to continue. Our state and country depend on it.

Congrats to the Elizabeth Youth Theater Ensemble in Roselle, NJ for being a 2026 National Endowment for the Arts grant recipient! Their project seeks to celebrate America’s 250th through the artistic voices of our youth. Can’t wait to hear what they have to say.

On Friday, Feb. 6, work will be suspended on the Gateway Tunnel Project as a result of Trump's funding freeze. I'm hosting a Tele-Town Hall at 6:30pm that day to bring you the latest on the fight to resume funding. Democrat or Republican, this project is critical to our state.

People I’ve spoken to in New Jersey are scared because they see the lawlessness being carried out by this administration around the country. You deserve to feel safe in your communities, not frightened that Trump’s ICE is coming for your neighborhood.

In New Jersey, we stand up for one another. ICE activity in our neighborhoods is distressing, but please know our office is here to serve you, the people of New Jersey. Please review your rights and share with a friend.

The mob boss tactics we are seeing with ICE in our cities fails when we stand up and look out for each other.

3 days until work stops on Gateway, a program that's generating billions of dollars in economic activity. This isn't a political issue. New Jerseyans, Democrats and Republicans alike, want to resume this funding now.

3 days until the Gateway Tunnel Project runs out of funds. Funding must be restored to this critical project that supports the most economically prosperous region in the world. New Jersey, and our nation, depends on it.

Work on the Hudson Tunnel Project stops in 4 days unless the Trump administration unfreezes the funds Congress approved for the Gateway Program. With 95,000 jobs on the line, it's time to keep New Jerseyans at work.

This is corruption at a whole new level. America is not for sale, yet Trump is making deals with foreign leaders and giving them unprecedented influence and access. We should all be concerned about the conflicts of interest here.

People in my state are terrified to leave their homes, to travel without their passports, to go to work and school. I hear you, NJ. There must be accountability for this lawlessness.

I voted No because I wanted to send a clear message to the Republicans that addressing the lawlessness we see in Minnesota and around the country is urgent, and we should be working through the weekend and not let up until we have safeguards for the American people. 1/3

Freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and the right to peacefully protest are core American values. Trump's crusade against journalists is another one of his mob boss tactics of intimidation and suppression.

You deserve answers – from Sec. Noem and the administration. As a member of the Homeland Security Committee, that's what I'm demanding. Come and explain yourself to the American people.

President Trump has shown zero inclination to stop his crusade against the Federal Reserve's independence, including by personally and politically going after Chair Powell and Fed Governor Lisa Cook. 1/3

This is an insane amount of your taxpayer dollars going towards the occupation of our cities. We don’t want to fund Trump’s personal army any longer. I pushed for this report and will continue to shine a light on the way Trump’s spending the money coming out of your wallets.

Companies linked to Trump, Jr. have been awarded multiple lucrative DOD contracts and loans. This raises serious concerns about conflicts of interests and keeping our communities safe. I'm working with @warren.senate.gov and @blumenthal.senate.gov to get the answers you deserve.

Moments like this are extremely scary and I’m glad @repilhan.bsky.social is okay. We need to be able to come together—peacefully—and discuss what’s going on in our communities. That’s the power of a town hall. Political violence, and any effort to fuel it, is never acceptable.
