Last night wasn't the first time Jack showed us his true MAGA colors...

This is just a start; Prime Minister Netanyahu and Hamas must immediately allow humanitarian aid to reach civilians in Gaza to end the famine. I encourage all parties to honor their commitments in this agreement and take further steps towards peace and security in the region.

After two years of brutal war, I'm relieved to see an initial ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas that finally brings the hostages home and halts the fighting.

Jack continues to prove that he'll put Trump before New Jerseyans every single time.

Just 30 seconds of Jack saying that Donald Trump is right about EVERYTHING he's doing.

To top off his no good, very bad week, Jack floundered while trying to defend the fact that he made millions while printing misinformation that opioids were not addictive.

There's no defense for that kind of behavior.

It's really simple: I'll protect abortion rights in New Jersey. Jack
will pass an abortion ban.

ICYMI, here's Jack's decades-long career of proposing and voting to raise taxes.

Jack is an expert tax-raiser, voting to raise your taxes at every level of government.

Between supporting Trump’s price hike bill and putting a 10% sales tax on the table, Jack has proven to New Jerseyans time and time again that a vote for him means higher healthcare prices, utility costs, and barriers to opportunity. He’s shown us that New Jersey can’t afford him.

I know that we can do better for our kids.

As governor, my Online Safety Agenda is going to make New Jersey a leader in kids' online safety, establishing a first-of-its-kind Social Media Addiction Observatory and pushing for accountability from Big Tech.

May the memories of those lost be a blessing. I continue to pray for an immediate release of all hostages, an end to the war and famine and for a lasting peace in the region.

The beautiful installation, adorned with flags from 26 countries, was both moving and heartbreaking — a vivid reminder of the human toll of violence and the shared responsibility we all carry to build a more peaceful world.

This evening, I stopped by Livingston and stood with the community and council to pay my respects to the more than 1,200 innocent lives lost in the horrific attacks that took place two years ago in Israel.

The cost of living has been a problem in New Jersey for a long time. But these days, it feels worse, and the massive increase in energy costs is a big reason why.

I’m going to declare a State of Emergency on Day One to end the rate hikes and drive in new energy to grow supply and lower costs.

El primer día de mi administración, declararé un Estado de Emergencia para acabar los aumentos de tarifas e impulsar nuevos fondos de energía para aumentar la oferta y reducir los costos.

El costo de vida en Nueva Jersey ha sido demasiado alto por un rato. Pero en este momento, se siente peor, y el aumento en los precios de energía es una gran parte del problema.

Here at home, we must continue our work to combat antisemitism and religious hate and make our communities safe and welcoming for all.

My heart is with all those who lost loved ones and particularly the hostages still in captivity. We must work to bring home the hostages, end the humanitarian crisis, and reach a lasting ceasefire to bring peace to the region.

Today marks two years since the vicious Hamas terrorist attacks of October 7th. More than 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken hostage, where tragically, too many still remain. It has also been two years of war in Gaza, setting off a humanitarian crisis and devastating the region.

This weekend, Team Mikie volunteers made over 77k calls, knocked nearly 45k doors, and launched 93 canvasses across the state.

It's one of the biggest field operations in the history of New Jersey politics, and we're only growing from here!
