Bayonne – Congress is coming to your corner to help with casework, passports, and anything else you need from a federal agency. We hope to see you there!

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 17(source)

Our country is not safer because of what DHS and ICE are doing. We're becoming less safe every single day. That's why it's so important for every single person to join House Democrats in calling out the harm this Admin is causing to all of our neighbors.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 17(source)

Hope has two daughters: anger and courage. People should be angry at how the Trump Administration is terrorizing our communities. And now we need everyone to find the courage to raise their voice. I’m in this fight till the end, and I encourage you to join me.

TONIGHT AT 6: Trump's "losing battle" to keep the Epstein files locked down as the House closes in on a critical vote to release all of them. Plus, @menendez.house.gov joins us to address the surge in ICE arrests and growing concerns over agents operating without visible ID.

This incredible place means so much to all of us and that’s why I’ll always fight to ensure LSP remains the People’s Park.

As a member of the Equality Caucus, I remain committed to fighting against transphobia & for the rights of trans people this week & every week. 🏳️‍⚧️

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 15(source)

We must do more to protect, support, & uplift trans voices. This #TransgenderAwarenessWeek, we want to remind you that we see you, we support you, & we love you.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 15(source)

I was proud to have provided testimony on behalf of the residents I’m privileged to represent. We must pursue every possible solution to curb helicopter noise and safeguard the health, safety, and peace of mind of our neighbors. 🚁🔨

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 15(source)

Grateful to Senator Raj Mukherji for his partnership in fighting to protect our communities from the constant, disruptive noise of non-essential helicopter traffic plaguing Hudson County.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 14(source)

By improving coordination between the federal government, consumer advocates, and local law enforcement, we can stop scams earlier and improve the safety of our digital economy.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 14(source)

Too many families, veterans, and seniors across New Jersey are targeted by bad actors online and over the phone. That's why I introduced legislation to better protect our communities from rising online scams.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 14(source)

We aren’t for govt shutdowns but we are about shutting down this Administration's attacks on American families. House Democrats will always fight for everyone we have the privilege to represent.

Rep. Rob Menendez@menendez.house.govNov 14(source)

I stand with Rep. LaMonica McIver. The court ruling doesn't change what we witnessed that day at Delaney Hall: a committed public servant doing her job. Proud to stand with her as we continue to protect our NJ communities and hold this Administration accountable - together.
