L'Shana Tova! Wishing all those who celebrate a happy and sweet new year.

Costs are high enough. Now, health care costs are going to nearly double when tax credits under the ACA expire. I voted NO on Republicans' funding bill today: they refused to act to save people's health care. I won’t sit by as they give tax cuts to the rich & make costs greater for everyone else.

Like Kirk, Kimmel had the right to share his opinions-even if you find them offensive. The problem with taking Kimmel off air has nothing to do with what he said. Trump put political pressure on ABC to cancel his show. It's not cancel culture. It's a muzzle on speech that this admin doesn't like.

Republicans are about to let tax credits for the Affordable Care Act expire, which will cause health care costs to nearly double for thousands of Americans. What you need to know, and how I’m fighting to keep costs down:

Join me this Thursday for my tele-town hall! It is undoubtedly a troubling time in Congress, and I look forward to answering your questions. You can join using the QR code or the link in my bio. As a reminder, I host town halls in-person every other month, so stay tuned for next month’s location!

For anyone who remembers where they were on 9/11, it doesn’t feel believable that it’s been 24 years. We can never forget the lives we lost on that day, and must ensure the heroes of 9/11 are given the resources they deserve.

I unequivocally condemn the attack of Charlie Kirk. The truest sign of our right as Americans to freedom of expression is tolerating opinions you don't agree with. Using political violence to settle our differences is never the answer & will only divide us. Praying for his family & UVU students.

The evidence is clear: NJ will trust science and medicine above all to keep our communities safe. Proud of our state for putting health first! 💪 www.nj.com/politics/202...

The discovery of the Chemmani Mass Grave serves as painful reminder of the many who disappeared in Sri Lanka’s Civil War. We must seek justice, truth, and accountability for families of the disappeared. www.nbcnews.com/world/asia/w...

I am horrified to learn about the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. Children deserve to go school safely without fear. They deserve to pray without fear. We need swift gov't action to address this gun violence epidemic. My heart goes out to the innocent children and families

Yesterday marked 90 years of Social Security delivering a crucial safety net to hard-working Americans. Trump officials and House Republicans say they want to privatize Social Security. I’m working alongside my Democratic colleagues to not only protect, but enhance your benefits. It’s time to act.

An ICE Facility at Ft. Dix would undoubtedly affect our service members’ morale and their ability to serve. It feels painfully hypocritical to have U.S. troops training to fight for our freedoms on the very same base that will likely ignore thousands of immigrants’ basic human rights.

This morning, @norcross.house.gov & I visited Ft. Dix to demand answers about the proposed detention center. As of now, no undocumented immigrants are being held on the base. But that hasn’t stopped this administration from keeping Congress and military officials in the dark about their intentions.

This doctor CAN confirm this shocking truth! @jonathanstea.bsky.social

New Jersey’s Congressional Democrats stand united in opposition of the Trump Administration’s decision to create a detention facility for undocumented immigrants at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst.

💸🚨 In just over 6 months, our team delivered $2.5 million rightfully owed to residents in our district. While I’m fighting against the harmful policies of this administration, my team is working to provide assistance with federal agencies, social security, passports & more.

I will not stop reminding people of the devastating consequences of this law for people across New Jersey.

My deepest sympathies are with those affected by the flooding in Kerrville. I'm particularly devastated to hear about the young girls at Camp Mystic. Thank you to the first responders for their heroic efforts. I also must thank NJ's own Scott Ruskan, who saved nearly 200 lives during the flooding.

As we continue to debate this bill, here’s a quick quiz to help out any Republican colleagues who may be unsure how to vote. Spoiler alert: I’ll be voting no.

Health care decisions should be between a doctor and their patient. Period. This decision continues to put women’s access to reproductive health care at serious risk. There is no room for politics in the exam room.

To call this bad is an understatement. This could be deadly for millions of children. There's a reason we don't hear about kids getting Hepatitis anymore: we have vaccines that prevent them from getting it. We need to take health advice from doctors & scientists, not conspiracy theorists.

House Republicans just made it clear: billionaires > our nation’s heroes.   They passed a bill to privatize the VA, hurting veterans to benefit their billionaire friends.   Veterans deserve better — this is truly shameful.

It’s been three years since the Dobbs decision overturned the fundamental right to an abortion in the U.S. As a Doctor and a Member of Congress, I’ve seen firsthand just how dangerous this ruling is. 5 ways the Dobbs’ decision + Trump’s actions are putting lives at risk:

Speaker Johnson is trying to block us from putting up a plaque in the Capitol to honor the officers who served January 6th--including the New Jersey State Police. We're hanging it up anyway. I stand firmly with those who put themselves in harms way to defend democracy on that day.

My statement on American strikes against Iran:

Tomorrow, I will be hosting a Congressional Service Academy Information Day. Learn more about receiving a nomination to one of our country’s service academies. More information below:

Happy Juneteenth! While we celebrate our country’s progress, we have a ways to go towards justice for all. Despite that today is a federal holiday, celebrations are being canceled across the country due to resistance to diversity and inclusion. We remember the generations who fought for freedom.

Join me in Moorestown for our June Town Hall. I look forward to hearing from you and answering your questions. What are you most interested in discussing?

Jokes about Elon and Trump aside, we’re witnessing the world’s two most powerful people argue while our government cuts basic services and looks to kick millions of people off of their healthcare.  The American people deserve better.

It’s official. The CBO is the *non-partisan* office that estimates how much things cost, and they see what we see: Millions of people will lose their health care, all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. apnews.com/article/cbo-...

I had the honor of laying a wreath at Burlington County’s Memorial Day Wreath Ceremony at Veterans Memorial Park — a meaningful tradition held each year on May 30 to remember our nation’s fallen heroes and support their families. Thank you to everyone who joined to ensure our heroes are honored.

I am sickened by yet another antisemitic attack in Boulder. We cannot allow this to feel normal. I am praying for the victims and their families, and I stand with the Jewish community today and every day. Antisemitic violence has no place in our country.

We have to look out for our neighbors. This is what I’ve been fighting for. and the fight is not over.

Finally getting rid of some real waste, fraud, and abuse.

I spoke at the Burlington County Institute of Techology’s Youth Men’s Empowerment Summit. It’s true—American men are falling behind. We must do more to uplift young men in our communities, ensure they reach their potential, and pave the way for the next generation of leaders.

I am horrified by the murder of two Israeli embassy workers last night at the Capitol Jewish Museum. I stand in solidarity with the Jewish community. It is chilling to witness yet another act of antisemitic violence in our country. There is no justification for such hatred.

The US Attorney charging @replamonica.bsky.social for conducting her constitutional duty is baseless and politically-motivated. Members of Congress can and will continue to conduct oversight of federal facilities. Democrats won't be intimidated by this Administration's tactics.

What I’m reading this morning. This is our government at its best: federally-funded research saved this baby’s life. And now, the findings have the potential to help treat other genetic diseases like sickle cell or Huntington’s disease. If this isn’t American greatness, I don’t know what is.

🚨🚨 THIS WEDNESDAY, May 21st, join me for a tele-town hall! Join by phone or on Facebook. Invite friends and members of the community to ask pressing questions and discuss what matters most to you. RSVP to receive a link to join the link below or the QR code: docs.google.com/.../1aZL3oE5...

My statement on the NJ Transit rail strike:

While I try to get answers on the impact of tariffs, Republicans have... other priorities. This is your government at work.

Plan the king a $45 million parade while voting for millions to lose their health care… obscene, but unfortunately just another day in Trump’s DC t.co/fXOvCyGbOu

As both a Congressman and a doctor, it is clear to me just how devastating cuts to Medicaid would be for millions of Americans. Read my Op-Ed below: www.nj.com/opinion/2025...

This Administration is needlessly playing with fire and it could get Americans killed. Their policies have caused this, and they can fix it. I urge them to take action.

Delaney Hall is a for-profit prison and it should not be used to detain immigrants. Period. Profiting off the incarceration of people seeking safety and a better life is wrong, no matter who’s doing it or where it’s happening. Delaney Hall’s use as a detention center must be stopped immediately.

Some good news. And a powerful reminder of why we must continue to fund medical research across the country. Exciting developments like this don't happen on their own and without support."

I don’t know any doctors who would say taking away someone’s healthcare was a good idea. Yet Republican have proposed $880 billion in Medicaid cuts in order to fund tax breaks for the 1%. I stood alongside my fellow Democratic Doctors in Congress to protest these cuts and defend Medicaid.

Benefits of VA telework: - Improved timelines and responsiveness of VHA's member services - Reduced the need for VA to lease physical office space - Reduced the need for managers to be present at multiple locations - Allowed for sensitive veteran information to remain confidential

Today I proposed an amendment to guarantee that veterans who depend on Medicaid don’t lose coverage. Every single Republican voted against it. Unlike my Republican colleagues, I know how important it is to keep our promises to those who served.

I was sent to D.C. to help make things more affordable. Unfortunately, Mike Johnson & Republicans are doing nothing. Johnson needs to call a vote on policies that will lower costs. That’s why I signed a letter demanding Speaker Johnson prioritize bills that lower prices & improve quality of life.
