Happy Lunar New Year to all celebrating in NJ and around the world! I love this time of the year as our family comes together to cook our favorite foods and celebrate new beginnings. I hope this next year is one filled with good luck and fortune for you and your loved ones.

As we grieve this incredible loss, we’ll remember and honor the Reverend’s life and legacy—his courage, his leadership, and his never ending fight in the pursuit of justice and equality. May we continue to live the values he shared with the world as he rests in peace.

A completely unhinged tantrum from someone who didn’t get their way. I don’t know one person in NJ, Republican or Democrat, who doesn’t see the power and value of the Gateway Tunnel Project.

NJ’s history is one of innovation. This Black History Month, I honor the contributions of Black inventors and scientists to this legacy as we work to expand the Einstein Corridor.. In 1964, Newark native Meredith Gourdine founded a research and development laboratory in Livingston, NJ.

We need to get rid of the idea that our strength is just about the size of our military. We see it in NJ, and I’m telling everyone I can at @munsecconf.bsky.social: education is key to better security and more opportunities around the globe.

As the father of two boys in public school, I will always fight for federal investments in our schools and for our kids to receive the best education possible. It was great to talk about these priorities with the NJ Principals and Supervisors Association in DC this week!

This is good news, but why did we go through this in the first place? Because Donald Trump had a tantrum? He should keep his ego out of our state and let New Jersey get back to work.

$38.3 billion for a dumb and cruel immigration policy that doesn’t work. The next time they tell you we don’t have money for healthcare or education or actual public safety, remember it’s going to this absolute waste.

Seeing the military in our streets in not normal. Here's what Sen. Peters and I found in our report on what Trump's deployment of the National Guard in DC is costing YOU.

1 year of RFK Jr. Let's grade his results. ❌ 15 million people losing healthcare ❌ Over $1 trillion cut from Medicaid & the ACA ❌ Premiums x3 for 20 million+ Americans ❌ The largest measles outbreak in decades RFK Jr. and Trump are making us sicker and less safe.

You deserve clarity on the actions ICE has taken on our streets.

Enough is enough. While Trump has played political games, New Jersey workers’ jobs and livelihoods have hung in the balance. The money Trump owes for the Gateway Tunnel Project must be released immediately.

There’s a rot deep to the core in the Trump administration. I will not vote to give DHS another dollar so long as their lawlessness continues.

The monk Walk of Peace made it to their destination here at the Capitol this morning. Witnessing just a piece of their journey was a reminder that true compassion is not passive. We must serve our ideals with grit, hard work, and strength.

The idea that Congress is powerless to stand up to Trump is wrong. The Senate took action and today the House finished the job in reversing these tariffs that are costing you money. It’s just a start. We need to find our power and use it to fight for you and your families.

Community banks are the backbone of many rural and small towns left behind in bank deserts like we have in South Jersey. I introduced the TRUST Act to make it easier for these small town banks to provide small businesses and working families pathways to the economic stability they deserve.

Today, I met with Marc Morial, President of the National Urban League. We discussed efforts to hold ICE and CBP accountable, both for the cruelty in our streets and the inhumane conditions we see in detention centers like Delaney Hall in NJ.

Trump is withholding 95,000 jobs and $19.5 billion in generated economic activity hostage. His ask? His name on yet another building. It's extortion and it’s costing you.

The people are speaking out and speaking clearly: they will not support Trump's lawlessness and baseless attacks at those he deems his enemies.

It was great to meet with leaders from New Jersey UAW. Working people deserve jobs they can rely on and pay they can raise a family on. UAW and workers across our state are on the forefront of the effort to deliver it, and I’m proud to be in the fight alongside them.

It's about damn time Speaker Johnson do something to address the housing crisis. Dems have been ready for months. It's time for Senate Republicans to get their act together.

Always a pleasure to sit down with Australian Ambassador Kevin Rudd. We talked about everything from innovation and building an Einstein Corridor in New Jersey, Australia's trade with NJ, and how to strengthen U.S. deterrence against Chinese aggression in the Indo-Pacific.

No matter where they are on the political spectrum, NJ residents know the Gateway Tunnel Project will result in easier commutes, thousands of jobs, and greater economic connection to NYC. Trump’s ego is holding all of this hostage.

Another ridiculous price tag that Trump is forcing you to pay. This is YOUR money. You deserve a government that works for you, not against you and your financial interests.

Right now, a thousand workers are off the job because of Trump’s refusal to restore funding for the Gateway Tunnel Project. It’s past time to get people back to work.

This temporary restraining order is just the first step in restoring funding for the Gateway Tunnel Project. We will continue fighting to hold Trump accountable and get the project up and running again, and New Jerseyans back to work.
