Trump promised to lower costs on Day 1. One year later, let’s grade his results.

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'" –Dr. MLK, Jr. Reflecting on this quote from Dr. King as we honor his memory and continue to fight for a future my kids can be proud of.

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.

Healthcare and caregiving shouldn’t be about politics. I will use my position in the US Senate to fight for all families struggling through our broken system. We all need support.

This week, I met with NJ students from the Religious Action Center to hear what’s on their minds. I commend them for their advocacy on gun violence prevention, combatting antisemitism, teen mental health, and reproductive freedom, and look forward to supporting their initiatives.

The era of looking to the stars to see the future has only just begun. I'm excited to introduce the NASA Talent Exchange Program Act. By continuing to drive American innovation and unlock talent, we help make a bright future possible for our country.

Last week, I met with Korean American Grassroots Conference (KAGC) U Leadership Students and shared my experience working in government and politics. It was wonderful to speak with these young leaders and encourage them to get involved in the political process!

National Bagel Day feels like a special tribute to my home state because every New Jerseyan knows we do bagels best. To celebrate, check out my personal bagel recipe on my website, or treat yourself to a pork roll, egg, and cheese with SPK! 🥯

Yesterday, I met with Bobbie advocates and shared my own experience navigating paid family leave, maternal health, and caregiving in this country. I look forward to working with Bobbie and others to ensure families in this country get the care they need and deserve.

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

Citizens United was one of the first things I talked about on the campaign trail. It was the reason I ran for office. Almost a decade later, I’m still fighting for a democracy that fairly represents all Americans.

Let me tell you why Trump is picking fights with Jerome Powell and why we need an independent Fed.

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

Trump continues to go after those who disagree with him because he wants to maintain power. I’ll continue to stand with my colleagues like @slotkin.senate.gov who stand up to Trump’s mob boss politics, and call out the President’s clear intimidation attacks.

It was an honor to meet members of the NJ Children’s Choir at the Korean Grassroots Conference Korean American Day celebration. Loved that they performed ‘Golden’ from K-Pop Demon Hunters!

Watch this. All of it. This is what standing up to bullying looks like. We’ve got to stand up to the mob boss in chief and fight back against his corruption and political intimidation.

We must tackle food insecurity in our state. I look forward to working with the Lt. Governor-elect and our partners on the local, state, and federal level to provide resources to New Jerseyans.

I toured RWJ Barnabas Health Center in Newark today to discuss the importance of healthcare that meets people where they are. Providing support in social services, food insecurity, and safe housing should all be elements of our care system. There’s no health without them.

Today, @menendez.house.gov and I met with members of NJ’s Venezuelan community and asked them what they think about this administration’s actions. We owe them answers about Trump’s true motives and plans for their home country.

I don’t believe the lie Trump is telling about his motives in Venezuela. It’s about enriching his wealthy friends and feeding his own ego.

This is a critical moment for the people of Iran. We’ve seen people bravely speak out about their future and the Iranian regime respond through violence, disinformation, and cutting Iranians off from the internet. 1/2

Since sharing my dad's Alzheimer's diagnosis publicly, I've been blown away by the support and your own stories about being a caregiver for a loved one. Thank you for responding to my own with empathy, kindness, and words of encouragement. We'll continue to get through this together.

Since Speaker Johnson refuses to display the Jan 6 plaque, the Senate unanimously agreed to display it on our side of the Capitol. Speaker Johnson, go dig the plaque out of whatever hole you’ve been hiding it in.

There's no question that many international institutions are no longer working as intended, or long past time for updating. However, withdrawing from them en masse eliminates our ability to reform them, and cedes ground to competitors... 1/2

The Senate just passed a bipartisan vote signaling deep concern about Trump’s continued military actions regarding Venezuela. Americans don’t want us to “run” Venezuela and they deserve to have their voices heard.

Guess Trump didn't know about the housing affordability crisis when his party killed our bipartisan bill in December that would have helped lower Americans' housing costs.

Congressional Republicans are preventing the oversight of ICE actions across the country. We must stop the recklessness that put lives at-risk.

You deserve to know what the plan, or lack thereof, is in Venezuela. It’s time for the Trump administration to stop hiding behind classified briefings and answer your questions directly.

I just saw the video footage of an ICE officer shooting an American citizen. I’m still processing it as it was incredibly disturbing. There must be an immediate investigation. 1/3

Haphazardly firing FEMA employees who are dedicated to disaster recovery and emergency preparedness shows where Trump’s and Noem’s priorities lie – and it's not with you. Disaster will strike and we will be less prepared as a result of this administration.

It's absolutely ridiculous that Trump would say their action in Venezuela was a law enforcement action. All their excuses are just a guise for their extortion foreign policy.

What will we tell future generations about January 6th? I hope to be able to tell my boys that we can heal this country.

January 6th reminds us that we are all temporary stewards of this country. It's up to us to ensure it flourishes long after we're gone.

January 6th taught us how fragile our system of government can be. We must learn the lesson and stay vigilant in fighting against all forms of attack on our democracy.

Freezing funds meant to help hundreds of thousands of families just because they are represented by democrats… this is what mob bosses, not presidents, do.

The American people don't want another war. I'm with you – I'm tired of this and I'm tired of Trump's mob boss politics.

5 years after the January 6th insurrection, we reflect on what was at stake then and what’s at stake now. Thank you to the brave Capitol police officers who saved lives that day. We must continue to be caretakers to our nation and our democracy.

Tomorrow, we should reflect on the attack at our Capitol, especially those of us who work in its chambers. It’s about respect. For our Constitution, our country, and the people who kept us safe.

Trump’s doing mob boss politics again — this time on a global scale. He doesn’t have a plan for what comes next, just another half-baked scheme to help his friends get richer.

Today, I joined Celltrion for the opening of their facility in Branchburg, NJ. This is what the Einstein Corridor is all about: global innovation in medicine and technology that starts right here in our state. It’s an exciting time to be a New Jerseyan!

While Trump effectively declared ‘mission accomplished’, regime change is more complicated than that. Maduro was a brutal/illegitimate leader, but his regime is still in power and there are many questions about what comes next. Congress is back today; here’s what we should be asking. THREAD
