Trump's trip to China once again shows it's a Golden Age for all of these CEOs and billionaires – and we're paying the price.

Trump went to China from a place of weakness that he brought us to. His policies, his war, his failures make it harder to deliver for the American people.

As I know from caring for both my father and sons, being a member of the Sandwich Generation is tough. I want to use my place in Congress to help the 11 million+ wrestling with this burden.

You shouldn't be forced to pay debts you don't legally owe. But Trump's attack on the CFPB is taking away protections against this. I joined Democrats on the Senate Floor last night to fight for a future where homeownership is part of the American Dream again.

You have the right to know your credit score. It's how you can protect your financial future. I joined Senate Dems in a Floor takeover to fight for you and speak out on against Trump’s attack on the CFPB.

Millions of Americans are balancing the demands of raising children while caring for their agents parents – they fall into what's known as the "Sandwich Generation." 1/3

Trump’s war is adding expense after expense to your tab. And the bill just keeps rising.

Once again, I voted to end Trump’s costly war in Iran, supporting @merkley.senate.gov's War Powers Resolution. For the SEVENTH time, Republicans blocked it. Gas, groceries, airline tickets… Americans’ wallets can’t take much more of this.

When I was growing up in South Jersey, buying your own home was part of the American Dream. It was a dream we all thought was within reach. This isn’t the case in the America my sons are growing up in. Now, the average American is 40 years old when they purchase their first home. 1/2

This temporary pause proves what we already knew — DHS rushed this process without undertaking the proper legal reviews. The people of Roxbury don’t want this massive detention center in their backyard. I will continue pressing Sec. Mullin to abandon this project.

Trump doesn’t give a damn about you. He just told you so.

This is Trump’s war tax on you: Higher gas prices. Higher grocery prices. Higher inflation. You’re paying for it - all because he started an illegal, costly war with no plan.

I sat down with @RefugeesIntl to discuss concerns about Trump’s reliance on third country deportations and the impact of cuts to humanitarian aid. This moment is defined by anxiety and urgency. Strengthening human rights and creating opportunities for all people makes America more secure.

Great to spend time with our DC interns and hear directly from them as they pitch policy proposals and research projects that they've been working on all semester. Thanks for all you've contributed to our office this Spring and for your service to New Jersey!

With my father’s diagnosis last year, I became one of thousands in NJ and millions across the country caring for a family member with Alzheimer’s. We must push for advancements in medical research and build a movement to support all caregivers across our country. www.nj.com/opinion/2026...

This week, I met with Taiwan’s delegation to SelectUSA to re-iterate the importance of our partnership. As we build an Einstein Corridor to make our state the #1 place for technology and innovation, partnerships like the one we have with Taiwan will only increase opportunities.

$2.6 billion made and no way of knowing if people were tipped off. Potentially profiting off inside information makes this already bad war even worse. Americans have lost trust in our politics because of shady things like this. We have to address it head on.

Last weekend, I met with Bridgeton Mayor Albert Kelly and other town officials to learn about the issues facing their community. We discussed the need to invest in affordable housing and transportation; lower high costs, including gas prices; and invest in workforce training and education. 1/2

No worker should be left fighting for the basic right to a safe job. That's why I co-sponsored @sanders.senate.gov's and @baldwin.senate.gov's Protecting America's Workers Act. We need to have the backs of all workers, in every corner of our country and across every industry.

The Abilities Expo was inspiring. I'm glad that people with disabilities and their families, caregivers, and advocates are able to come together in this way, get the resources they need, see the latest innovations and technologies, and connect with communities across the state.

Gas prices are insane right now. Danielle, an Uber and Lyft driver in South Carolina, went from paying $25 per fill up to $40 or more. Money directly out of her wallet, her take home pay. We're drowning in this war tax.

The rise in antisemitism is beyond troubling. It should be a call to action for us all. I’ve heard from Jewish communities in NJ about these anxieties. No one should fear being the target of this kind of hate. We must do everything we can to combat it in all its forms.

Happy Jewish American Heritage Month! I'd like to take a moment to honor the contributions Jewish Americans make to New Jersey. Celebrating Jewish heritage and communities across the country is just one way we can reject antisemitism in all its forms.

Trump’s war in Iran is hurting our wallets. The national average for gas is up again. $4.46 per gallon. I was just driving around New Jersey, seeing the high prices all over the state and hearing from communities: We can't keep absorbing this war tax.

I'm glad to see the Supreme Court standing up for reproductive health and freedom. We can't go backwards. This is only one part of the fight to protecting abortion access. We must continue to advocate for Americans' right to make decisions about their own bodies and healthcare.
