Political retribution is mob boss politics 101. Just this weekend, New Jersey shore towns were underwater again from extreme flooding. I have zero tolerance for this administration playing around with our wallets and lives because of tired political grudges

It's a reminder that our partnership between the U.S. and South Korea isn't just about security or economics, it's also about our cultures. I'm proud of both the Korean and American parts of my life and I'm grateful I get to lift that up every single day. 2/2

It was great to celebrate Korea Culture Day with the Museum of Korean American Heritage. It's amazing to see how Korean culture has become a part of American society – from K-Beauty to KPop Demon Hunters! 1/2

Thinking of communities across NJ, including along the shore, who have been hit hard by today’s flooding. More heavy rainfall is expected tonight. Never drive through flooded roads, and don’t forget to check in on your neighbors.

As the father to two growing boys, I know how important it is for kids to have access to nutritious food year-round. That's why I introduced the Summer Meals REACH Act in the Senate last year to ensure no child goes hungry when school's out. 1/2

Honored that my team joined today's inauguration and organization meeting of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka and the City Council. As the Mayor said, "it's time to govern" and bring "bolder steps and larger ideas." I look forward to working with him and the Council to do that very thing for Newark.

Today's decision by the Supreme Court will continue to dilute the voice of the people and make it easier for our elections to be bought by the wealthy and well-connected. We must stand up against this kind of money in politics. More here ⬇️

And today, the Supreme Court said that no president can. The Constitution says, if you're born in America, you're an American.

Trump’s bullying cost New Jerseyans time, jobs, and money. And now we’re right back where we started. This ruling tells us what we already know: Trump’s mob boss tactics are illegal and a complete waste of time.

So glad to see this win for the millions of voters who cast their ballots by mail. Even the President himself benefits from this form of democracy. Relieved this decision was upheld and we can move on.

Every person deserves a living wage. As the son of immigrants, I know the meaning behind the American Dream – but it’s only possible if people are able to meet their basic needs. That's why I co-sponsored the Living Wage for All Act to ensure working families can thrive.

Devastated to see the loss of life and damage done by the earthquakes in Venezuela. Thank you to the rescue teams for your efforts and dedication. I’m glad the international community has rallied quickly to support Venezuelans during their time of need. What a tragedy.
