It was wonderful to meet with students from NJ’s 4-H Youth Development program and hear about the range of opportunities they have to explore their interests and strengthen their skills. What a great opportunity to get involved in your community!

I will hold Secretary Mullin to his word to come visit the Roxbury warehouse that ICE purchased. I can think of far better things we could be spending half a billion dollars on.

This Administration has shown no remorse for the killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. We don’t want Trump’s ICE rogue agents in our communities or homes.

"Caregiver" has become one of my core identities. I don't think one can know me right now without knowing this part of my life. The community I have found has been incredible.

To the people who are standing in long lines at the airport – know that this problem is avoidable. We passed bipartisan legislation in the Senate. Speaker Johnson refused to bring it to a vote in the House.

You deserve a government focused on lowering the cost of gas, groceries, and healthcare. Instead they're focused on an illegal war in Iran that you're paying for.

This week, I met with members of the NJ Agricultural Leadership Development Program to discuss the impact that funding cuts and tariffs are having on our farmers. We are the Garden State for a reason. 1/2

I will hold Mullin to every single one of his promises, including revoking Noem's senseless FEMA policy that delayed aid to families in need.

This week, I met with the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation to learn about the work they do the support those impacted by spinal cord injuries and paralysis. It was a great to learn about how we can work together to advance innovative research and support families and caregivers.

This week, I sat down with members of the ROK National Assembly. We discussed the importance of the U.S.-ROK alliance and opportunities to deepen our economic and security ties moving forward. I look forward to continue working together to advance our shared priorities.

It's time for ICE to leave Roxbury, NJ. Shut down the warehouses-turned-detention centers NOW.

Trump’s war is raising your prices across the board. Americans need economic relief, not an endless, goalless war.

I know firsthand how critical early childhood education is to lifelong success. That's why I introduced the Creating Early Childhood Leaders Act. Supporting opportunities for our kids is only possible if we support our school leaders, too.

Your gas prices have increased astronomically. They show no sign of stopping. See how this extra cost for your family at the pump is tied to Trump’s incoherent war strategy.

It’s been almost a month since Trump started this war. Gas prices are up. American service members have died. There’s no end in sight. It’s why I voted for @chrismurphyct.bsky.social’s effort. We need to lower costs and save lives. Now.

It was great to meet with Brady to discuss our shared priorities around advancing gun violence prevention efforts in Congress. I look forward to working with Brady and others to make sure we’re creating a world that’s safe for our kids and grandkids.

Congrats to NJ's own Jamie Ding for winning his 7th game of Jeopardy last night by answering THIS final Jeopardy question: "Before taking office in 1801, President Jefferson asked the Army to locate this officer who had 'knowledge of the western country.'" Any guesses NJ?

I voted NO on Senator Mullin for DHS Secretary. The failures at DHS run far deeper than who holds the title of Secretary. Trump and his cronies continue to show no intention of ending the lawlessness we’ve seen in our streets and we must demand better.

16 years ago, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, expanding access to healthcare for tens of millions of uninsured Americans. Today, families across NJ are struggling to afford the coverage they once could under the ACA because of Republican cuts. 1/2

We tried to get funding to TSA workers SEVEN times. Republicans blocked them all. Don’t let them tell you this isn’t their fault.

Long lines. TSA workers without pay. ICE agents in our airports. Trump is holding our country hostage. It’s time Senate Republicans agree to fund TSA

This is absolutely unacceptable. When disaster strikes, it doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or Republican. All that matters is that you and your community get the help you deserve. This kind of partisan decision-making is not only irresponsible, it can cost lives.

The crash at LaGuardia Airport is scary and heartbreaking. This morning, I grieve alongside the families of the victims and hope for a speedy recovery for all those injured.

Americans don’t want ICE in our airports or in our communities. We just want Republicans to agree to fund TSA so workers can be paid and these lines can go down. Trump is trying to intimidate us. It’s time Republicans agree to fund TSA instead of voting it down every time.

Republicans gave ICE $75 Billion just last summer. They are holding you hostage in TSA lines to give them even MORE. We’re ready to fund TSA now. Let’s get this done.

What a waste of taxpayer dollars. The report I released with @SenGaryPeters found that the National Guard’s deployment in DC does little to combat violent crime and costs over $1 million per day. That’s because this is just another power play by Donald Trump.

It was a pleasure to meet with Commissioner Solomeno and the NJ Department of Veteran’s Affairs to discuss how we can best support NJ veterans. I'm committed to making sure those who serve our country get the help they need and look forward to working with DVA and the Sherrill Administration.

In Trump’s America, bribery is the name of the game. Trump’s cronies like Corey Lewandowski profit off of power and your pain. This blatant corruption is disgraceful.

Trump and Republicans want $200 billion for their Iran war. Last summer, they cut nearly $200 billion from food assistance. These may be Trump’s priorities, but they’re not ours.

We keep trying to fund TSA and pay thousands of workers across this country, but Republicans refuse to let us do so. We're ready now. Let's fund TSA.
