I’ve got two kids. I’ve been to a lot of doctor’s appointments with them and know that when your pediatrician says something, you listen. MediKids is designed with kids in mind because we listened to pediatricians.

MediKids would raise the bar for what raising healthy kids looks like in our society. Guaranteed mental health, dental, and vision coverage for all kids with automatic enrollment at birth. The ability to go to the doctor when you're sick. That's what MediKids is all about.

There is a clear cycle of corruption between the Trump administration and the companies that run his for-profit detention centers. Delaney Hall must be shut down for good.

This is scary and dangerous stuff. Each day we’re learning more about the potentially catastrophic threat AI poses to our national security. We must ensure frontier AI models do not enable a state or rogue actor from developing a devastating weapon or bioweapon.

The personal reminders I keep of 9/11 in my Senate office. 25 years later, I'm still thinking of all we lost and how we move forward.

Today is the 25th anniversary of September 11th, a day that changed so many of our lives, including my own. I join you in remembering those we lost and honoring the heroes who saved lives. We are all part of something bigger than ourselves. We can't take it for granted.

“I thought I was going to die that day. On 9/11, I responded to Lower Manhattan. We were at the edge of the rubble pile, things were burning, and there was no light. But in that very moment, I had to shake that fear of death off because people depended on me. I find my solace in helping people."

“GEO Group and the Trump administration right now are making a choice: to gain by making others suffer. But it is not their choice to make.” I’ve been back to Delaney Hall many times to check on the people inside. I wrote about what we must do to shut this detention center down for good.

Happy Labor Day, New Jersey! Today, we recognize the working people who help our communities thrive. As our nation faces an affordability crisis, it's important we have workers’ backs. Everyone deserve the dignity of being able to provide for themselves and their loved ones.

I toured the emergency department at Atlantic Health Hackettstown Medical Center and spoke with nurses about healthcare barriers in rural communities and the impact of Medicaid cuts. They told me guaranteed healthcare for all kids under MediKids would ease the burden their patients face.

To no one’s surprise, this administration is once again denying relief to disaster survivors. We all remember how devastating the LA wildfires were last year. So many families are relying on our help to get back on their feet.

89% of Americans believe our government is corrupt, because it is. We all see it. I’ve got a stock ban bill that will put us on a path to change. You deserve a government that works for you, not against you.

What an incredible life. An iconic advocate for women’s rights, Gloria Steinem taught us what it means to fight for reproductive rights and gender equality. I know many, including myself, will miss her guiding light, but her legacy will live on in the community she created.

Nationwide, it's clear ICE doesn't care about the health of the people they detain. The lack of accountability is unacceptable. At Delaney Hall and other facilities, people are suffering without proper medical care. They deserve so much better – that's what I'm fighting for.

There are 27 million kids in this country that aren’t getting the care they need. That number is only going up. I designed MediKids to bring it down to zero.

As a father, it's devastating to see the impact Trump and Republicans' cuts to SNAP are having on our kids. Too many are at risk of losing the nutritious meals they need to stay healthy and focused – and parents don't need another thing to worry about as we go back to school. 1/2

Back to school means new opportunities, clubs, and classmates! But, as a parent, it also means doctor's appointments, physical exams, and hearing and vision tests. Every kid deserves to show up to school healthy and ready to learn. That's what MediKids is all about.

6 months in and Trump's chaotic war in Iran continues to wreak havoc on Americans' wallets. We're tired of paying the price for a war waged in our name but without our say.

September is World Alzheimer’s Month. Last year, I shared my dad’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis publicly, opening up about how it’s impacted me and my family. I know first-hand the challenges families and caregivers face, as well as the importance of investing in medical research. 1/2

Being a caregiver shouldn't be catastrophically damaging to your bank account or your mental health. This is what I hear from so many families across this country.

When a child is in need of care, their family should never have to worry about their ability to afford it. Candace’s story is a moving testimony to why we need to pass MediKids.

Like millions of Americans, I rely on Amtrak to get where I need to go. One of the easiest ways to get from Jersey down to the Capitol is by train. When I sat down with Amtrak Board Director Rob Gleason, we discussed the importance of Amtrak's investment in New Jersey, and beyond. 1/2

Today marks 6 months of Trump's Iran War. 18 American servicemembers have died. More than 750 wounded. Costs are up from the grocery store to the pump. Farmers and small businesses can't plan for the future. 181 days to be worse off than we were before. It's long past time to end the war.

We do not need to be giving an already cruel, out-of-control agency electric shock gloves that come with a price tag of $20 million taxpayer dollars. That's why I'm demanding the Trump administration abandon this reckless plan. It's a waste of money and we deserve better.

No child should lose access to care, regardless of their parent’s financial situation. That’s why I introduced MediKids. I asked New Jerseyans to share their healthcare stories. This is Lauren’s.

Happy Healthcare Day of Action! I believe that everyone deserves healthcare, and that it's especially important for our younger and aging generations. That’s why I introduced MediKids, universal healthcare for children. No child should go without the care they need.
