I voted against DHS funding in the House and I'm grateful that Senator Kim and Senator Booker voted against it in the Senate today.
We must continue to hold the line to protect our communities.

Our communities are stronger when we believe in each other.
Grateful to join Mayor Solomon, Rep. McIver, and so many proven leaders in this fight to protect our communities.
That's why I joined @schumer.senate.gov & all of my bi-state colleagues in demanding that Trump immediately release the funding already allocated to the project.
We won't stop fighting for the future of our transit systems.
The Gateway Program is the most important infrastructure project in the country & significant progress has already been made.
We're not backing down from protecting our communities- not now, not ever.
The fish rots from the head down.
Trump has empowered Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem to have Americans killed on our streets, to terrorize our communities, and to constantly lie to the press and the American people.
They need to go. And so does Trump.
Breaking Axios:
Kristi Noem's language that Alex Pretti wanted to "massacre" federal agents was dictated to Noem and her department by the man most responsible for the controversial operation: Stephen Miller.
That's according to four sources who spoke to Axios. www.axios.com/2026/01/27/t...
While I'm grateful that a federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump Admin from deporting 5 year old Liam Ramos and his father, it should never have gotten to this point.
Using a 5 year old as bait and then sending him to a detention center should outrage every American. Our fight continues.
Now more than ever, it's important to stay educated and know your rights. Sign up at the link in our bio.
Community is how we keep our communities safe.
That's why our team is partnering with the NJAIJ to host an emergency legal observer information session tomorrow with @repbonnie.bsky.social and @replamonica.bsky.social to learn how to document ICE/immigration enforcement officers' conduct.
Our Muslim friends and neighbors are an essential part of the fabric of our state.
This #MuslimAmericanHeritageMonth, we recommit ourselves to uplifting our Muslim communities and all their contributions that make our communities stronger.
Two @housedemocrats.bsky.social have now been assaulted in a single week. Trump’s hateful, dangerous rhetoric fuels this kind of political violence, and we must all reject it. America is better than this.
I’m relieved to hear that Rep. Ilhan Omar is safe. Incredibly powerful that she continued the town hall with her constituents after being attacked.
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jewish people & millions of others murdered by the Nazis.
Antisemitism & hate have no place in our country. I will continue to stand with all of our communities to rid our country of all forms of hate - today & every day.
Immediately after Trump froze funding for Gateway, @kim.senate.gov and I met with union workers on the ground.
We've been fighting every day to deliver the safe, reliable, modern transit our communities deserve.
Bus-to-person collisions account for 35% of all bus transit fatalities.
That's why Congressman Frost and I introduced legislation to keep pedestrians safe by eliminating bus operator blind spots. We must do everything we can to protect pedestrians and our communities.
We will keep fighting any decision this Administration makes that delays or impedes the progress already made on this project of national importance.
We have already made real progress on Gateway, with major milestones reached on schedule and on budget. Yet the Trump Admin wants to jeopardize good-paying jobs and put our region’s growth at risk.
I will always go straight to where the fight is, whether at Delaney Hall or in Minnesota.
And if the Administration wants to push back, we're Jersey and we won’t back down.
I agree with my friend Rep. Robert Garcia. The time to reform ICE has passed.
This is an agency that cannot be fixed. It is one that needs to no longer exist.
"ICE needs to be abolished, Noem must be impeached"
Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) joins Katy Tur to react to some of his Republican colleagues calling for an investigation into the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by a federal agent.

Republicans need to take a good hard look in the mirror if they think what’s happening in our country right now is acceptable.
It’s long past time for them to use their voices to hold the Trump Administration accountable and to do right by the American people.
