The Constitution defines the Separation of Powers as central to our Democracy. The President wants all the power over the purse and the military.
Congress approved $4.9 billion in spending for foreign aid. The Trump White House canceled all of it.
Whether he likes it or not, the Congress that you elect decides on spending. These "pocket rescissions” can start with foreign aid, but your education, your roads, your healthcare could be next.

I may be from Jersey, but the term “bless your heart” came to mind when I saw this from the NRCC.
Looks like I scare them not only because I “believe” in climate change, but because I’m a climate change scientist and know all about it.
I’m not someone Donald Trump wants in Congress.

Just yesterday, Tom Kean Jr. doubled down on his vote to slash Medicaid, food assistance programs and raise health care costs for thousands of NJ families.
My family worked hard but still relied on these programs to make ends meet. That's why I'm running for Congress.
