Republicans in Congress gutted public broadcasting and now rural areas, including in their states, are feeling the impact.
That means jobs lost, local stations forced to close their doors, and communities cut off from critical emergency alerts.
Their constituents deserve better.

The team at the Hughes Center researches tirelessly to keep our air travel modern, safe, and fast.
I'll continue to support their efforts and work with the FAA to fix delays, support our air traffic controllers, and keep our skies safe to fly.
but ignore the federal laws enacted in the aftermath of previous disasters to build the most effective, reliable, and prepared FEMA that Americans deserve. -AK 4/4
As experts at FEMA have outlined, the Trump administration's actions to gut the agency and leave it without any sort of qualified leadership are not only dangerous 3/4
I previously worked as a career federal government employee, and it is absolutely abhorrent to see the retaliation facing public servants trying to keep Americans safe. 2/4
To the FEMA employees who are being targeted after they raised concerns about our country’s disaster response readiness, I’m grateful for your service and willingness to take personal risk for our national security. 1/4
…and continue to gut a workforce of public servants trying to look out for their fellow Americans' well-being. 2/2
We are talking about Americans' health and safety. Nothing is more important.
Yet Trump and RFK Jr. appeared to have fired the CDC Director just weeks after she was sworn in… 1/2
I’m dedicated to working with the FAA and our tech center in New Jersey to make sure we’re fixing delays, providing our air traffic controllers with the best resources possible, and working to keep our skies safe to fly. 2/2
Yesterday, I toured the William J Hughes Technical Center outside of the Atlantic City airport in New Jersey.
When it comes to air travel, modern technology and bold innovation are critical to addressing the problems we face. 1/2
Over 400,000 New Jerseyans will pay more for their health care next year because Republicans chose to sacrifice your care in order to give tax breaks to their billionaire friends.
It's unacceptable.
It is horrific that we live in a society where we fear going to school and sending our children to school because of the threat of gun violence. 2/2
I’m devastated to learn of a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School, a K-8 school, in Minneapolis earlier today. My thoughts are with the families and loved ones of the children we lost today and others impacted by the violence. 1/2
This Health Care Day of Action, I’m highlighting how Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid will harm NJ families and the places where they receive care.
When I visited Zufall Health Center in Bridgewater, NJ earlier this year, I saw first hand how critical health centers are to the communities they serve.
Taxes on back to school items in NJ have tripled because of Trump’s reckless tariffs.
It’s unacceptable that high costs imposed by this administration - in order to fund tax cuts for the richest among us - will force NJ families to choose between school supplies and basic necessities.
I heard a lot of the same concerns about the uncertainty of the future that I hear when talking with young people in the United States, as well as some of the same hopes. It's important that we work with a new generation of leaders to meet this important moment & shape our shared global future. 2/2
Last week in Seoul, I had the honor of meeting with the next generation of Korean leaders, hearing their perspectives on global issues, the trilateral U.S.-ROK-Japan relationship, and their commitment to public service. 1/2
...and support the heroic first responders who are still experiencing harmful effects today.
I’m committed to doing what I can to make sure this is a reality. 2/2
The World Trade Center Health Program is a critical support for first responders who deal with health conditions linked to 9/11 Ground Zero exposure.
The WTC Health Program must continue to review and certify new illnesses that may be tied to this exposure... 1/2
Congratulations to Principal Tony Cattani of Lenape High School in Medford, NJ for being named National Principal of the Year!
The hard work and dedication you have committed to New Jersey education is an inspiration to all.
