This is a huge win for Teamsters and for workers everywhere but it never should have taken this long. These workers voted to unionize in 2022 and Amazon used every tool at its disposal to delay the collective bargaining process.

April is National Donate Life Month and yesterday I got the chance to tour the new transplant center at Virtua Lady of Lourdes Hospital. My office was able to secure a $2 million community funding grant to help expand and renovate this state of the art facility so that it can continue saving lives.

Chag Sameach to those in South Jersey and around the world observing Passover starting tonight!

Good luck and godspeed to the crew of Artemis II! Thousands of workers across America, including at over a dozen companies here in the First Congressional District, have spent years contributing to this mission that will send human beings back to the moon.

Yesterday I toured Delaney Hall with @menendez.house.gov, where we heard from those being held inside. These people are human beings and deserve to be treated as such. Here's my thoughts:

April 4th marks 77 years since the NATO alliance was formed, redefining what it means to be an ally with shared values, commitment, and the pursuit of collective security.

Yesterday I was in Camden's Cramer Hill neighborhood to deliver nearly $2 million in Community Project Funding for new trash bins and sewage system upgrades. I'll always fight to make sure South Jersey gets its fair share of federal funding.

It was great to be with my colleagues from the Labor Caucus, along with dozens of our nation’s labor leaders, to reaffirm our fight for the American worker.

250 years ago, our Founding Fathers fought a war to free our nation from tyranny. They believed in democracy and died to ensure that power in this country rests not with a single man, but with the people.

My grandkids are one of the greatest joys of my life, and without fertility services, they wouldn’t be here today. Unfortunately, these treatments can cost tens of thousands of dollars, and most insurance plans aren’t required to cover those costs.

Americans deserve clarity and transparency on why we started a war with Iran, what we're doing now, and what our end goals are. Since this war started 27 days ago, we've gotten none of that.

For the first time in fifty years, the City of Camden experienced zero homicides during both the summer and winter months. What was once considered the most dangerous city in America has now become a model for what can be accomplished when law enforcement works hand in hand with the people

It's always great to see my friends in labor, and yesterday I met with NALC Branches 908 and 540 to talk about how we can continue to strengthen collective bargaining rights for our nation’s letter carriers.

Today, we wear purple to raise awareness and stand with millions of people worldwide living with epilepsy. I am proud to have introduced the Seizure Awareness and Preparedness Act to help ensure all students nationwide are surrounded by trained and prepared individuals in the event of a seizure.

Happy #OpeningDay Phillies fans! Fingers crossed for another Red October this year! #RingTheBell

I got the chance to give a Capitol tour to the South Jersey Chamber of Commerce this week. I’ve always said that the best social program is a good-paying job, and our business community provides those job growth opportunities to residents across New Jersey's First Congressional District.

For 30 years, Equal Pay Day has reminded us that the fight for fair wages isn't over. Equal work deserves equal pay, and we won’t stop until the wage gap is closed.

A couple of years ago, I attended a ceremony in Audubon, a town in my district with a population of over 8,000, to celebrate medal of honor recipients who have roots in NJ-01.

Just finished speaking at the Aircraft Carrier Industrial Base Coalition's Congressional Breakfast. National security starts with a strong, well-paid workforce, and America has the talent.

The Medal of Honor is the highest and most prestigious military award. Today, on National Medal of Honor Day, we recognize the servicemembers who distinguished themselves through valor.

I support the Fair Wages for Home Care Workers Act to guarantee minimum wage and overtime protections for over 3 million home care workers. These workers provide essential care to our loved ones, and they deserve to be treated with the same dignity and respect that they give every day.

Voting is an important part of our democracy, and what better way to participate than by wearing an “I Voted” sticker after you vote?

Thanks to everyone who came to my Seniors Telephone Town Hall this afternoon! Trump has been relentlessly attacking Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, and our seniors are paying the price.

My three priorities in Congress have always been the same: jobs, education, and security. Last week, I delivered $1.7 million in Community Project Funding to Magnolia and Westville fire departments. Investing in public health and safety is how we ensure there's lasting security in our neighborhoods.

It was great chatting with Rowan University students during their visit to DC about the work I do in Congress. These bright minds represent the future of our government, and I have been lucky enough to have RIPPAC alumni and interns work in my office over the years. Thanks for stopping by!

Yesterday, I got the chance to meet with representatives from the National Kidney Foundation to discuss the need to expand access to healthcare, including kidney disease prevention. Healthcare is a human right, and I will continue working to make it more accessible to South Jersey residents.

Last week, I attended my 118th town hall since coming to Congress at the Collingswood community center to talk about the issues that are top of mind for South Jersey residents. From the need to abolish Trump's ICE to the high cost of living and election integrity, we discussed it all.

We have to make smart investments that keep South Jersey on the map as a leader in education and innovation. That's why I worked hard to secure $1.9 million for Rowan University and Gloucester County. Our students are the future, and we've got to make sure they're prepared for the workforce.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Wishing everyone in New Jersey good luck today.

Your Social Security data should never be at risk. A whistleblower report alleges a DOGE employee saved the private information of 500M+ Americans onto a personal thumb drive and attempted to share it with a private employer. This should never be allowed to happen.

This week, I honored Master Sgt. Sandy McHugh of Collingswood for a lifetime of service. She spent 29 years in the Air National Guard and 30 years teaching in Cherry Hill Public Schools, inspiring generations of students. Thank you for your service to our country and community.

Our firefighters put their lives on the line every day to protect our communities. Yesterday, I got to deliver federal funding to Westville and Magnolia that will help replace aging equipment and support the firefighters who keep South Jersey families safe.

Today, I delivered nearly $2 million in Community Project Funding to projects for Rowan University and Gloucester County. This funding will help support a project to develop cutting-edge housing research and a project to make key infrastructure improvements to Rowan's West Campus.

There’s been a lot going on in the news lately, and I want to hear what’s on your mind. Join me tomorrow night at the Collingswood Senior Community Center for my 118th townhall. RSVP and ask a question here: sparkcreative.wufoo.com/forms/rjhfs8...

There’s been a lot of tough news lately, but the $2 million I secured for Pennsauken's Public Works facility and Maple Shade's water treatment plant is a real reminder of what can happen when government listens and delivers for our communities.

It was great to be in Maple Shade yesterday to deliver more than $1 million in Community Project Funding to help build a new, modern treatment plant that will remove contaminants like PFAS from our water system.

It’s great to be in my hometown of Pennsauken today to deliver a $850,000 investment that supports the people who keep our community running. From trash collection to snow removal and pothole repair, Public Works crews provide essential services we rely on every day.

It was great to be named a Legislative Leader by the Humane World Action Fund. Our furry friends depend on us to look out for them, and I’ll keep working to protect them in Congress.

On International Women’s Day, we celebrate the women of South Jersey who show up, lead, and get things done. Your strength shapes our communities and inspires the next generation of female leaders.

During American Red Cross Month, we recognize Clara Barton’s extraordinary legacy. Before founding the Red Cross, she established New Jersey’s first free public school because she believed education should be available to all. Her life of service continues to inspire generations.

The police officers who protected lives and defended the Capitol on January 6th are true heroes who deserve lasting recognition. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I rode my bike to celebrate a big milestone today: construction is beginning on the Camden County LINK Trail. This 34-mile trail will connect communities, support local businesses, and create more opportunities for people to walk, run, and bike across South Jersey.

Workers are the backbone of America’s economy and they deserve to be recognized for their hard work. On #EmployeeAppreciation day, we stand with workers everywhere in the fight for fair pay, safe workplaces, and dignity on the job.

America has the talent. Now we need the programs that inspire the next generation to enter the workforce that will help build and sustain our defense industrial base.

As a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee, I received classified briefings after Operation Epic Fury and am still left with serious questions.

Good. The entire country will be better off. Next up, abolishing ICE and rebuilding the agency from the ground up. The work continues.

Great to meet with the new Food Bank of South Jersey CEO, Jane Asselta, to discuss the work they are doing in South Jersey. No family should worry about putting food on the table, and I will keep fighting in Congress to make sure help is there for those who need it.

I joined 85+ House Dems to oppose the Department of Education’s proposed RISE rule. The RISE rule comes from Trump’s Big Ugly Law, and would restrict graduate loan access and eliminate affordable repayment options, making college even less affordable. Students deserve opportunity, not more debt.

Wishing a safe and happy Holi to those celebrating across our district and the nation!

During Irish American Heritage Month, we recognize the generations of Irish Americans who helped build South Jersey. This month, we celebrate their legacy and the values of hard work, perseverance, and service they continue to bring to our region today.
