For 109 days, you have paid the price at the pump for Trump's reckless war in Iran. Today, I co-led a roundtable to highlight the strain that rising gas prices have put on working families, small businesses, and farmers in NJ and around the country.

That’s why we must pass the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that aims to boost supply of affordable housing while lowering costs on American families. I'm proud to have authored several provisions in this package that will address the housing crisis that is hurting families across New Jersey. 2/2

Since Day 1, Trump had no plan. He started this war in our name, with our money, but without our say and without a plan. If he's making claims about a ceasefire deal, you deserve to know exactly what's in it. 2/2

This administration has given itself a 60 day clock to negotiate a new nuclear deal with Iran, something that requires time, thoughtfulness, and careful diplomacy. We have not seen that from this administration. 1/2

Trump entered a war of choice with no plan for how to end it and our families paying the price. It's beyond time Congress put an end to Trump's costly and illegal Iran War.

We see and feel the impact of gun violence on a regular basis. From mass shootings to election intimidation – it has become far too normal in our society. I joined @apiavote.bsky.social to take a stand against it. Ending gun violence is critical to protecting our rights and freedoms.

Trump is a mob boss who’s still trying to take away our right to vote through threats and intimidation. We must reject this violation of our basic rights.

No one deserves to live in fear of another mass shooting or the daily occurrence of gun violence in our country. That's why I introduced the Gun Violence Records and Restoration Act to combat illicit gun trafficking, prevent gun violence, and save lives.

My own boys were one and three when I first came to Congress. It's an exciting time for a parent, but also a challenging one. It's why I joined @zerotothree.bsky.social yesterday to highlight the work we need to do to support parents of young kids. 1/2

Trump and Republicans just handed ICE $70 billion. How much more money do they need to pad the wallets of big corporations like GEO Group and fund the lawlessness in our streets and the cruelty inside detention centers like Delaney Hall? It's OUR money and it's disgusting.

This is the HIGHEST inflation rate we've see in 3 years. Everything is more expensive: gas, plane tickets, electricity, groceries, healthcare, rent. We can't afford Trump's America any longer.

Trump’s reckless actions abroad mean higher prices here at home. Numbers don’t lie - his war tax on American families is being felt across our economy. We’re sick and tired of it.

Trump’s "burn it to the ground and fix it later" approach has caused chaos and cost countless lives. He’s hampered our ability to detect Ebola early on and help contain it by gutting USAID and the CDC, and pulling out of WHO. 1/2
