As a military veteran and a working mom with two kids in public school. I was called to run for Congress after the November election to end the divisiveness and bring folks together.

My name is Rebecca Bennett, and I am ready to roll up my sleeves and deliver for New Jersey’s 7th.

It was great to be with the Warren County Dems and the Phillipsburg Democratic Council team as they were sworn in yesterday! I’m excited to partner with you to continue to move the needle forward in Warren County and across NJ-07.

Being a congressional candidate with kiddos home for break means I sometimes have a helper on fundraising calls.

Tonight is our end-of-quarter deadline — if you can chip in, it would be incredibly helpful. And yes, you might hear from me and my favorite sidekick.

Buddy check - how’s everyone doing out there?

Hope you’re having a great winter break with friends and family!

Grateful to have met so many of you out in the community this year and I'm ready to carry this momentum with your support into next year to flip NJ-07 from Red to Blue!

I’m a patriot. I love this country. It’s why I joined the military, and it’s why I’m stepping up now.

Proud to be a Hellcat, part of a group of badass women veterans running across the country to take back the House.

In NJ-07, this fight is personal. My family is feeling the same pressures you are.

I'm running to fight for you like I would fight for my own family.

Affordability isn’t just a talking point to me - it’s my life. We’re living through a cost-of-living crisis, and we need people in Congress who get it and will actually do something about it.

For all the parents out there making magic happen this holiday season—you’re absolutely crushing it. See you out there 🫡

As a military aviator, I learned how to lead in tough environments where pressure is real, decisions matter, and teamwork saves lives. I’m ready to bring that leadership to Congress for NJ-07 families.

It was great to join the Somerset Dems last night at their annual holiday party. Thank you to Chairwoman Peg Schaffer for having me. We’re ready to build on the wins from this year and work together to flip this seat in 2026.

As ACA subsidies expire and premiums rise, Tom Kean Jr. is choosing to stay silent even while his Republican colleagues crossed party lines to force a vote. No fight. No accountability. NJ07 families deserve better

Thank you to Greg Vartan for stepping up and running to represent our community. I’m grateful for the ideas and energy he brought to this race. I look forward to continuing to work together to strengthen our party, engage communities like Summit around our district, and flip this seat in 2026.

There’s one thing the girls look forward to every year - seeing Santa coming off the firetruck with candy canes and presents, and Bridgewater does it best!

My heart breaks for the victims in Australia and at Brown University. No community should live in fear of gun violence and antisemitism. Safety and freedom go hand in hand — and Congress must act on meaningful gun control legislation to save lives.

Sorry @caitfornewyork.bsky.social, Navy’s getting that 2-peat. Go Navy, beat Army!

It was great to join the Morris County Democrats at their holiday party this week and celebrate all the historic wins across the county in November! Thank you Chair Darcy Draeger for having me - I look forward to working with you to build on these wins and flip NJ-07 next year.

I wore this country’s uniform. I understand the stakes when administrations escalate abroad without congressional authority. That’s what we’re seeing in Venezuela right now, and it’s why we need a Congress willing to do its job.

Tom Kean Jr. had the chance to stand up for our healthcare, and he didn’t. Now costs are climbing in CD-7, and voters see why.

Before the vote, Republicans flat-out refused to even consider ways to help families afford their health coverage. Now they're concerned?

It is unacceptable that Speaker Mike Johnson is trying to block our service members from accessing IVF. We have an opportunity right now to expand access to this care. TomKeanJr — where are you on this?

Child care is a crisis in this country.

As a mom of two, we were paying over $3,500 a month for full-time daycare. People cannot afford to pay this.

We need leaders who actually understand what this feels like and how much it is hurting our families.

Child care costs consume 19% of N.J. family budgets, survey finds
With programs costing families nearly a fifth of their monthly budget and state subsidies now unavailable to new applicants, working parents are left with few options.

As a mom of two young kids, I’m horrified by the decision to end the long-standing recommendation that newborns receive the hepatitis B vaccine. This guideline is backed by decades of science and real-world evidence.
Breaking News: A federal vaccine committee voted to end the decades-long recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B, a highly infectious virus that leads to chronic liver disease in most infected children.
An End to Hepatitis B Shots for All Newborns
A federal panel voted on Friday to recommend halting the at-birth shots for all infants, in a step toward Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s goal of upending the nation’s vaccine policy.

Pete Hegseth is unqualified and unfit to be Secretary of Defense. He needs to resign or be fired immediately.

We must flip the House to provide badly needed oversight on this administration.

He should resign immediately.
