What happened yesterday at a warehouse in Avenel involving nearly 50-armed ICE agents targeting people at their place of work is yet another reminder of how far the Trump Administration will go to spread fear and terrorize our communities.
#TBT to when Congress appropriated $6 BILLION that could keep SNAP running during a shutdown... The Trump Admin knows they have this money and the ability to use it. They are choosing to let families go hungry instead.
Over 800,000 New Jerseyans will lose their November SNAP benefits if the Trump Administration continues to withhold funding. House Democrats are fighting to protect SNAP because no American should go hungry–not now, not ever.
A Republican shutdown won't stop our team from serving you. Harrison – 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!
Families & small businesses across New Jersey are paying more on their energy bills—and the rapid growth of AI data centers is a major reason why. That’s why we are holding data centers accountable to ensure our communities aren't continuing to shoulder the cost of these facilities’ energy demands.
The cost of data centers shouldn't fall on everyday families & small businesses. That's why I'm leading an effort to investigate the impact of data centers on energy costs for Americans, who are already struggling to afford household utility bills. Learn more: kevinmullin.house.gov/2025/10/28/r...
Sandy forever changed New Jersey, and storms are becoming stronger and more frequent. Yet Republicans want to cut FEMA and disaster response funding when we need to be investing more in preparedness, not less.
As we watch Hurricane Melissa devastate parts of the Caribbean, we’re reminded — on the 13th anniversary of Superstorm Sandy — of how vulnerable our communities are to the growing impacts of climate change.

When Republicans passed Trump’s budget bill, they showed us their true colors by voting for the largest cuts ever to Medicaid and SNAP. House Democrats have and will continue to hold the line in our fight for all Americans.
Investing in our children is investing in our future. Starting November 1st, families across New Jersey risk losing access to Head Start programs due to the Republican shutdown. These programs are lifelines and Republicans must act now to protect them.
Grateful to North Hudson CAC for all they do, and I’ll keep fighting to protect WIC, SNAP, and the families supported by these programs. Honored to bring their message back to Washington.
So Republicans can find $40 billion to bail out Argentina, but can't find a dime to make sure 42 million Americans don't go hungry next month?
Johnson: Snap benefits is a unique situation. I got a summary of the legal analysis…the contingency funds are not legally available to cover the benefits right now
The solution to our energy challenges should be simple and bipartisan: invest in wind, solar, and every tool that builds a stronger, more affordable future for everyone.
