Proud to receive a 100% on this year's @lcv.org Scorecard! Being from the Shore, I know how important a clean and safe environment is to building strong communities.

Thousands of federal retirees are facing chaos this tax season because OPM hasn’t mailed their tax documents on time. Worse, when they call, they’re met with busy signals and long hold times. Unacceptable. I teamed up with @pallone.house.gov to demand Director Kupor fix this now.

Trump is the warmonger. He is causing the violence. He’s not the president of peace. He’s the president of war.

What the heck is the K-Shaped Economy and how is Trump making it worse? Let's talk about it.

💪 A very New Jersey, very blue collar chat between @pallone.house.gov & @weareliuna.bsky.social #Local472 member (and laid off @gatewayprogram.bsky.social #Laborer) Derrick Healy ahead of tonight's State of the Union address.

✊ Derrick & Justin of @weareliuna.bsky.social #Local472 are repping us as @pallone.house.gov & @repnellie.bsky.social's guests at STOU. Derrick: "Is it politics as usual w/Pres. Trump saying one thing & doing another?" Justin: "@gatewayprogram.bsky.social shouldn't have stopped. It's upsetting."

I asked my guest what he wants to hear at the State of the Union tonight, and he said: “when do we go back to work?”

💪 @weareliuna.bsky.social @gatewayprogram.bsky.social Laborer Derrick Healy is representing us at tonight's State of the Union as a guest of @pallone.house.gov, a pro-Union ally.

Four years ago today, Putin launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine and unleashed countless horrors on a nation that dared to demand democracy and freedom. Cities have been razed to the ground, children have been kidnapped, and thousands of people have died. The world cannot look away.

When Trump froze funds for the Gateway Tunnel project, 1,000 workers lost paychecks overnight. Why would he do something so foolish, you ask? To get his name on Penn Station. Really.

What I saw at Delaney Hall today disgusted me. Liberty is a New Jersey value—it’s in our motto. Trump’s ICE is trampling on liberty by unjustly detaining our neighbors in this inhumane facility. This is not who we are as a state or as a country.

ICE wants to hold human beings in conditions designed for STORAGE. Not in our state.    My colleagues and I just launched an initiative to oppose the Trump Administration's plan to treat people like cargo. Join our initiative: pallone.house.gov/stop-ice-warehouse.

While Democrats worked to restore access and lower health care costs, Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans spent the entirety of last year making health care unaffordable and inaccessible for MILLIONS of Americans.   This is a REPUBLICAN health care crisis.

Wishing a prosperous and happy Year of the Horse to all celebrating Lunar New Year in NJ-06!

Americans are struggling to make ends meet because of Donald Trump, but he calls the affordability crisis a “hoax.”

The real hoax is Trump’s economic agenda.

“I don’t want to imagine how they would act if they were unsupervised,” a 14-year old writes about the ICE officers holding her in a detention center in Texas.   Seeing these words written by a child is heartbreaking. There must be accountability.

Congressional Republicans are shutting down our disaster response, maritime safety, and airport security because they want to let ICE roam our streets with NO accountability. Instead of enabling lawless masked federal agents, House Republicans need to work with Democrats to rein in Trump’s DHS.

Some out-of-touch valentines from the Trump Administration. 💌

Excited to announce that my 11th Annual Poetry Showcase is now up and running! Students grades K-12 are welcome to submit original poems to my office by March 13th for a chance to be featured. Happy writing!

America has come too far. LGBTQ+ Americans and their contributions to our history will not be erased.  The Pride flag deserves to fly over the birthplace of America's LGBTQ+ rights movement—and I'm proud of my colleagues across the Hudson for rebuking Trump's efforts to rewrite Stonewall's story.

The repeal of the endangerment finding is a lose-lose for working families and a coup for Trump’s wealthy corporate polluter buddies.   I will not rest until this outrageous repeal is reversed.

Millions of married people would face an uphill battle to vote if Trump and @houserepublicans.bsky.social’s SAVE Act gets pushed through Congress this week, because it requires the name on your birth certificate to match your current ID to register.

Trump and his lackeys are wildly, hopelessly out of touch.

Our children should be able to learn and grow in spaces that value mutual respect and human dignity, but the Trump Administration is twisting civil rights law to keep disrespectful and degrading Native American mascots in schools. thehill.com/homenews/edu...

Media ownership protections promote competition and local news.   Today I reminded FCC Chair Brendan Carr that he has no legal authority to remove the national media ownership cap and demanded he follow the law.

This is what America needs right now. #SuperBowlLX

Great news! I secured $850,000 in federal funding to repair and replace the retaining wall along Upper Prospect Road in Atlantic Highlands.

Trump and Congressional Republicans have created a cost of living crisis, making everything from rent to groceries on Super Bowl Sunday more unaffordable than ever.

Today, I kicked off the 11th year of my Youth Advisory Council in Old Bridge with 134 students from across NJ-06. I’m always inspired by the next generation of leaders. Thank you to the Old Bridge Public Library for welcoming us.

If Trump wants to slap his name on something, I've got a couple landfills. But America's most important infrastructure project needs to move forward.

This is a positive development that keeps America’s most important infrastructure project moving forward for now. New Jerseyans stood up and spoke out because we know our communities depend on Gateway being seen to completion.

Maya Angelou said, “when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” Trump has engaged in atrociously racist rhetoric since Day One, and it's only getting worse. House GOP leadership must join @housedemocrats.bsky.social in condemning it.

These are Trump’s immigration stooges. Americans have died on their watch, and they need to go.

TrumpRx has been shrouded in secrecy from the beginning because the Administration doesn’t want anyone to know it likely won’t save patients money.   However, we do know Trump only slaps his name on things when there’s something in it for him.

Work stops TOMORROW on America’s most important infrastructure project if Trump doesn’t unfreeze the funding Congress appropriated. He has to unfreeze it, NOW!

Americans are being MURDERED IN THE STREET. ONCE AGAIN, I am not voting to send Trump’s ICE another penny!

Republicans are allowing federal agents to terrorize communities under the pretext of fraud.  If you want to get serious about waste, fraud, and abuse — let’s start with President Trump and the harm he’s doing to our nation.

Americans are watching their power bills skyrocket. Meanwhile Trump has been illegally CANCELING new energy projects across the country, making the electricity affordability crisis even worse.

Happy Black History Month! From Harriet Tubman’s days threading the Underground Railroad through our state, to the rich cultural and civic heritage of the Black New Jerseyans of today, Black History has been a part of NJ history from day one.

Guess who the Acting IRS Commissioner and the Treasury Secretary are? Scott Bessent: one of Trump's favorite lackeys. If he helps the President plunder $10 BILLION from the IRS in this lawsuit, it would be one of the greatest heists of taxpayer money in American HISTORY.

Amazon dramatically overpaid for the rights to the Melania documentary and now they’re spending 10 times more for its promotion than they have on other high-profile documentaries. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/28/b...

“Just following orders” isn't a valid defense, Secretary Noem. You will face accountability for the deaths that happened on your watch, whether we impeach you or “the president and Stephen” fire you—whichever comes first.

I led the effort to empower Medicare to negotiate lower Rx prices for seniors, but now Republicans are creating loopholes that allow some of the most lucrative drugs in the world to avoid negotiating lower prices for Americans.

Springsteen is once again showing the strength of his values in this dark moment for our country.   The Boss has it right: we must all condemn ICE's lawlessness and brutality, and remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis, because our democracy depends on it.

If Kristi Noem won’t step down, I’ll help impeach her. Kids have drowned and protesters have been shot dead on her watch. I’ve had enough. Americans deserve competent leadership at DHS, and she’s given us nothing but chaos.

Two Americans have been shot dead on the streets of Minneapolis and members of our New Jersey communities are being detained. ICE and DHS are acting completely lawlessly, and what does Trump say? “They’ve done a phenomenal job.”

There was a time when Republicans in Congress believed in the Constitution and in a basic moral obligation to speak when something was plainly wrong. They must join Democrats in speaking out now.

Trump’s ICE executed a mother, and then a VA nurse, in broad daylight. Now his administration is pursuing an investigation of Renee Good’s widow and spreading slanderous lies about Alex Pretti.

Americans don’t want 50-year mortgages, the option to pay rent with credit, and lifetimes of debt. Americans want housing that’s affordable. Congress must work to find real solutions for working families, instead of the band-aids that Trump’s America is giving them. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/01/...
