I just voted to release ALL of the Epstein files. The American people deserve the truth. My full statement ⬇️

This Transgender Awareness Week, we celebrate the courage of our vibrant trans community. Everyone deserves a life filled with respect and safety. We stand with you today and everyday. 🏳️‍⚧️

The Epstein emails released this week by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov Dems raise serious questions about whether Donald Trump was an eye witness to Epstein’s crimes. With 218 signatures on the discharge petition, we can finally vote to stop the coverup and provide truth to the American people.

Let’s be real: working families are hurting, and costs and unemployment rates are on the rise. Regardless of the White House’s best efforts — they can’t hide the truth that the Trump economy isn’t working.

We are urging the Justice Department to consider immediately reversing its decision and provide a strong defense of the HSI program in any litigation.

Thank you, Rep. Mikie Sherrill, for making New Jerseyans proud during your time in Congress. I look forward to working with you as our next Governor to lower costs for working families and create greater opportunities for everyone in our great state.

I am on the House floor to offer my congratulations and support to Adelita Grijalva on her swearing-in. I look forward to working together to lower costs and expand opportunities for working families.

I’m on my way to Washington to vote No on the proposed government funding package. I came to Congress to lower costs for working families — and this proposal does NOTHING about rising health care costs.

I will vote no to any so-called government funding deal that will not stop Republican price hikes on health care premiums. This is a bad deal. My full statement:

This administration’s shame knows no bounds. After being ordered to fully fund food assistance, they are asking the Supreme Court to let them to cut some aid from women, children, vets, and families. Simply shameful and outrageous.

Paterson firefighters are vital to our city’s public safety. The department takes a whopping 40,000 emergency calls per year and deserves our support now more than ever.

Make no mistake: the Trump admin could fully fund SNAP right now. They’re choosing not to. They’re choosing to let families go hungry in a desperate attempt to cut your health care. Cruel. Shameful. Inexcusable.

Speaker Pelosi has been a fearless leader who shattered the marble ceiling, opening doors for women in public service, and inspiring others to break countless glass ceilings of their own. My statement below.

Day 36. The longest shutdown in U.S history. As House Republicans hold Congress hostage, House Democrats are fighting to make life more affordable. No family should ever have to choose between health care and food on the table. End the shutdown.

New Jersey — polls close at 8pm. Make sure to make your voices heard. Find your polling location: www.nj.gov/state/electi...

Over the weekend, a federal judge ordered the administration to tap into these emergency funds and begin making payments. Americans are being squeezed by high costs everywhere, including at the supermarket, this is not the time to play games with the American people.

When Jessica was packing for her vacation and noticed an expired passport, she called Team Pou where Christian helped her secure a passport and take her well-deserved vacation. Call our office today if we can be of any help! #ConstituentStoriesMonday

Awful tragedy in Paterson last night. My heart is with the victims and their loved ones during this horrific time. Grateful to all the brave first responders who rushed to the scene.

Wishing families across North Jersey a safe and happy Halloween!

The Trump administration cut $1 billion from food banks and now they’re refusing to extend SNAP for 42 million Americans. Letting people go hungry is shameful and reckless.

The scariest costume this Halloween? A do nothing Congress…👻 Time for House Republicans to return to the floor and work with House Democrat to open the government before the floor becomes another abandoned front.

Yesterday I had the honor of meeting with the New Jersey delegation of the American Coalition for Ukraine. As we near four years of this senseless war, we must continue to support Ukraine and its fight for freedom and democracy. Slava Ukraini!

High risk railroad crossings remain a serious threat in communities across our district and country.

This is what we’re fighting for. Working families shouldn’t be forced to choose between putting food on the table or affording health care.

We cannot play politics with the food of 42,000,000 Americans.

New report from The Washington Post reveals alarming wait times for seniors and retirees calling the Social Security Administration line. Hours on hold, maybe a callback, and many unanswered questions. You worked hard for that money, and you deserve better.

A nation cannot call itself “great” while its people go hungry. Hunger isn’t political, it’s an emergency. It’s time for USDA to do what’s necessary to secure SNAP benefits for the 42 million Americans that rely on the program to survive.

The President can build a new ballroom during a government shutdown, but we can’t put food on the table for working families?

Thousands of families in our district will see their health care premiums soar under the current Republican plan. It’s time to head back to Washington, reopen the government, and protect working families’ health care. Let’s get it done.

New Jersey, elections are how we make our voices heard. Early voting is now underway! Remember to return your mail-in ballot or make a plan to vote on Election Day. Find more information at: www.nj.gov/state/electi...

Too often we have seen this DOJ be used as a weapon of this administration to target the President’s critics. Early voting starts tomorrow. This move is designed to intimidate our county’s voters. We must not let them cast doubt on the integrity of a fair and secured election.

SNAP benefits are at risk and health care premiums are increasing. Working families need their representatives in Washington working for them. @HouseDemocrats are ready to work to reopen the government and lower costs for families.

In New Jersey’s 9th district, 33,000 people will see the cost of their health care soar. Congress has a duty to lower costs and protect health care for families. Enough excuses, it’s time to get back work for working families.

It’s been over a month since Adelita Grijalva was elected to Congress. It’s time for Speaker Johnson to do what’s right and swear her in.

It’s time for Speaker Johnson to call us back to Washington — so we can do the work we were elected to do: lower costs for working families.

Visited the Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine and Center for Discovery and Innovation today as the shutdown continues. Their work has never been more vital. With health care costs rising, I’m fighting to protect affordable care for working families across North Jersey.

Federal workers are working without pay. SNAP benefits are running out and Americans across the country are receiving notices of increases on their health care premiums. It’s time we start lifting working families up instead of tearing down the White House.

October SNAP benefits should be going out as usual but November SNAP benefits are at risk due to the Republican shutdown. It’s time for House Republicans to come to the table and negotiate so that working families aren’t forced to choose between health care and putting food on the table.

I’ll continue to fight to reopen the government, protect your health care and lower costs for working families. Let’s get it done.

Prices are rising and working families are struggling. It’s time for Congress to return to Washington and work to lower costs for Americans.

A powerful day outside the federal courthouse in Newark today. I stood with Congresswoman LaMonica McIver as pre-trial arguments got underway. We must all come together and stand against the injustice of this sham prosecution. Full reaction⬇️

Here’s to a New Year of prosperity, peace, and happiness to all celebrating Diwali across New Jersey and beyond. May your Diwali be filled with joy and light!

Federal workers can’t wait. Families can’t afford rising costs. So while Republicans take a vacation, Americans are paying the price. Reopen the government. Let’s help working families.

Diwali is a celebration of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. In a world that can sometimes feel so divided and uncertain, that message is more powerful right now than ever.

Let’s get it done.

New Jersey doesn’t bend to anyone. Earlier this week I Ied my delegation colleagues to demand the Trump administration restore this critical homeland security funding to our state. This is a baseless political attack and I’ll fight until our communities are funded and protected.

Yesterday Democrats on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee heard from NATCA about the Republican shutdown’s impact on its workforce and the effects on controllers working without pay. It’s time to compensate these workers and reopen the government.

Donald Trump’s threat to kill the Gateway Tunnel is a disgrace that targets the wellbeing of every person in New Jersey. I will fight to protect this project and stop this baseless extortion. End the Republican shutdown now.

Before heading back to Washington, I toured the WIC office in Paterson to underline my commitment to food security.

✅Stop the cuts. Save Health Care. Lower costs. It’s that simple. Let’s get back to work and reopen the government.
