An honor to stand with the NAACP State Convention yesterday to lift up Black leadership and affirm our shared commitment to advancing people — by building generational wealth, ending disparities in state contracting, and making sure our state government truly reflects the people it serves.

I’m proud to say that in just my second term in Congress, I was named the most effective member of our New Jersey House delegation.

As governor, I’m prepared to fight just as hard for a safer, more affordable New Jersey in Trenton and deliver real results.

Trump’s shutdown isn’t just reckless, it’s dangerous.

If Republicans don’t act, ACA premiums will double, the biggest price hike in U.S. history.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.
