A pleasure to be with the Chamber of Commerce of Southern Jersey for their Gubernatorial Forum this afternoon!

I know how difficult it’s become for businesses to open their doors, and I’m ready to make Trenton work for every entrepreneur and business.

Column: Democratic Rep. Adelita S. Grijalva won her special election in Arizona more than two weeks ago, but House Republicans refuse to swear her in.

It’s #BannedBooksWeek and yes, they banned To Kill a Mockingbird because it “makes people uncomfortable.”

That’s the point!

Books that expose racism and injustice should make you squirm.

Silencing truth is cowardice.

The malicious prosecution of Attorney General Tish James is baseless.

And the indictment is not worth the paper it is written on.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..
