This morning I heard from New Jersey teachers and parents about the high costs they're facing as the school year begins. As this budget fight gets underway I let them know I won't give away my vote for a Republican budget that makes their lives harder or more expensive.

I'm not giving away my vote for a budget that hurts New Jerseyans or anybody in our nation.

Trump's handpicked lackeys cannot hide the disastrous effects his policies are having on our economy. His tax cuts for the rich and chaotic tariff wars are costing jobs, raising prices on working families and killing opportunity for small businesses.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govSep 3(source)

If Trump and Republicans in Congress are going to propose a budget that will raise costs and cut health care, I am going to fight them every step of the way.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 28(source)

Trump ignored the rule of law, put his personal lawyer in charge of NJ, and now she’s making our state less safe.

3) We need a leader who is serious about lowering costs for working families, not one who only wants to distract from the reality that their agenda is deeply flawed, unpopular, and driving our economy into the ground.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 26(source)

Here is why Trump's temper tantrum about the Fed is bad for your wallet: 1) He's putting your retirement savings at risk. 2) It can raise costs on everything from groceries to car loans…

The National Flood Insurance Program is in need of reform, and I’m proud to lead efforts to lower prices and increase access for New Jersey and communities across this country that rely on the NFIP. Please let us know what you think should be improved.

Back to school shopping is getting harder for working families. Trump’s tariffs mean kids’ shoes and clothes alone cost nearly 40% more. Under Trump expenses are higher for parents and kids, while the ultra-rich get even more handouts and special treatment.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 21(source)

The administration should immediately restore Desiree Grace to her role as interim U.S. Attorney while it works to identify and nominate a permanent, qualified individual.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 21(source)

Trump's manipulation of the law to install his personal attorney, Alina Habba, as U.S. Attorney was clearly unlawful as the court recognized today. This legal limbo continues to thwart our prosecutors’ ability to tackle crime in every federal case across the state, putting public safety at risk.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 21(source)

From lunch boxes to crayons, families are paying more. School supplies cost 7.3% more than last year: index cards up 42%, notebooks 17%, binders 12%. Parents shouldn’t have to break the bank to get kids ready for school. Trump and Republicans’ failed economic policies are crushing working families.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 20(source)

Our democracy has endured nearly 250 years because people chose patriotism over politics. We must make that choice again and stand up for our democracy.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 20(source)

Trump promised to bring prices down on day one. 200 days later, EVERYTHING is more expensive. Food, healthcare, energy...it's all going up.

This new report shows how Trump's Department of Justice has turned into a corrupt pay-for-play system that harms our economy and leaves Americans paying the price.

…and improve access to humanitarian aid and medical personnel and services in Gaza. Secretary Rubio must immediately reinstate the use of these temporary medical and humanitarian visas so we can save lives now and double down on the work needed to achieve a just and lasting peace in the region.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 19(source)

Throughout this conflict, my office has relied on crucial humanitarian tools like this one to save innocent lives, and I have worked closely with the State Department under both the Trump and Biden Administrations to evacuate individuals in critical need of medical care…

including seriously injured children and civilians who have been caught in the crossfire through no fault of their own— without this lifesaving recourse.

Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govAug 19(source)

Donald Trump promised to secure a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel in his first week in office, and now Secretary Rubio is compounding this administration’s failure of leadership with a policy that leaves Gazans who qualify for temporary medical and humanitarian visas—

Trump is the type of deal-maker who ends up in bankruptcy (or six). The last thing Americans and Ukrainians need is another one of his bankrupt deals with Putin.
