Trump's traded Google, Meta, XAI, and Nvidia stock all year. Is it any surprise he doesn't want real AI guardrails? AI companies will not regulate themselves. This kind of inaction is what happens when a President is beholden to their own financial interests, not yours. 1/2

Congratulations! What a joyful moment. Wishing you and your family the very best.

I hear in my family's story, the echo of every immigrant story. That's why I sat down with the Haitian community in NJ and why I am bringing their concerns – the concerns of so many immigrants with TPS – to the halls of Congress.

The violence that occurred at Cornell in 2024 is horrific. As a dad raising two young boys, I want my sons to know right from wrong, to speak out when they see something, and always listen to victims and survivors. I hope Jane Doe in this case can find the healing and peace she deserves.

We are not safe until we get a handle on this. That starts with understanding the problem and reasserting human control over AI. The alarm bells are sounding — we need the AI Risk Management and Security Act, legislation I’ve introduced with @markwarner.bsky.social and Sen. Schatz, NOW.

5 million people, including an estimated 1 million children, have lost access to food because of Trump. Instead of a ballroom, an arch, or a war, we could be making sure people don’t go hungry. This President’s priorities are shameful.

The first couple days of my sons’ lives were filled with immense joy alongside the anxiety and uncertainty every parent faces. I introduced the NEST Act to make sure new parents are supported with the supplies they need, especially in our most vulnerable communities.

No one should go bankrupt trying to get the care they need and deserve. That’s why we need to make home and community-based services under Medicaid a mandatory benefit through legislation like the HCBS Access Act and support family caregivers, full stop. 2/2

It was an honor to meet with NJ members of the National Down Syndrome Congress who are fighting for increased access to care and supports for people with Down syndrome and other disabilities. 1/2

It’s clear from today’s Federal Reserve IG report that Trump’s claims against Powell are baseless. So, why does Trump keep trying to fire Powell? Because he wants to gain unprecedented control over the Fed. 1/2

Trump is spending $1.8 billion on his own vanity projects. What would that money get you? Let’s do the math.

As your Senator and a son of immigrants, I stand in solidarity with the Haitian community in New Jersey and around the country. We must shine a light on the Trump Administration's cruel attacks on TPS and fight for our communities.

Since Trump took office, New Jersey families have paid the price. Instead of bringing down costs and ending inflation, like he promised, he's just made life more expensive. This is the Trump Tax on you.

It’s great to see the Hudson River Tunnel of the Gateway Project officially underway! 🚞 Once complete, this is going to be a game changer for New Jersey commuters, regional jobs, and our nation’s economy. Thanks to all who worked to get us here. I can’t wait to see the tunnel’s progress.

At the Capitol, I met with Palestinian Americans from New Jersey to hear about what’s on their mind - from the urgent need for humanitarian relief in Gaza to the fears they face speaking out for their communities.

Public officials are supposed to serve you, not the people lining their pockets. When they don't, there must be consequences. The Honest Services Fraud Improvement Act empowers YOU to sue your Member of Congress or other public officials for corrupt actions known as "honest services fraud."

The students I heard from at the Annual Leadership Forum for Young Korean Americans are wrestling with big questions. Like my sons, these students are growing up in a fast-changing world. I’m excited to see what this next generation of leaders does with it.

Today is Constitution Day. Earlier this year, I visited Independence Hall where the Constitution was signed 250 years ago. I'm inspired by the young leaders I meet in NJ and promise to continue fighting so that "we the people,” not billionaires, are the core unit of our democracy.

Trump’s summit with Xi left too many questions unanswered. This is one of them.

This is incredibly dangerous and will keep happening unless we step up and do something to put guardrails in place. I’m concerned about what happens next. That’s why I’m taking action in the Senate and urging others to join me.

Yet another useless thing Trump is spending YOUR money on. And, how’d this go from a $14,000 ad to an over $430,000 ad? What a waste of our tax dollars.

No child in our country should go hungry, but red tape is preventing many military children from getting nutritious meals at school. That's why I introduced the Military Dependents School Meal Eligibility Act to ensure military children are no longer excluded from school meal assistance programs.

President Xi has been providing weapons and intelligence support to Iran against the U.S. In return, Trump rolls out the red carpet for him and meets him plane-side. Absolutely ridiculous.

New Jerseyans deserve to have public servants who work to earn and keep their trust, not undermine it. The findings of the independent report are unacceptable. The Lt. Governor should resign immediately. —AK

It should be a crime for public officials to accept bribes or tips. I introduced two bills to fix what should be obvious: accepting payments for influence and access, in all forms, is wrong. Let’s reset the standard and hold ourselves accountable to the people we serve.

Gas has reached $4.99 and diesel $6.59 in Maywood, NJ. We don't want a war, an arch, or a ballroom. We just want cheaper gas, groceries, and everyday goods. Trump's decisions have made our country too expensive.
