Grateful to join NJCU, SHCCNJ, and NJEDA to celebrate new investments towards the Hispanic Business Hub! These efforts expand opportunity for Hispanic students and entrepreneurs, ensuring everyone in our community feels empowered. 🤝
📍Hoboken Museum for Bebe Bambu’s Coconut Mask Expo 🥥🇵🇷 🎨 This is one of my favorite spaces - so much packed into the museum. And a place for artists like Bebe Bambu to exhibit their incredible work! Thanks for showing us around! Until the next time! 🫶
Cutting digital equity funding means denying seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, & other vulnerable Americans the tools they need to thrive in today’s economy. I led my NJ Dem colleagues in demanding the Trump Admin restore the $2.75B they cut—including $20M for our NJ communities.
In E&C, I called out Republicans for trying to block Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood. Every single one still voted to defund it. Now, a federal judge ruled their effort is illegal. As a proud member of the Repro Caucus, I’ll always fight for reproductive freedom & health care for all.
BREAKING: A judge has blocked the Trump administration's efforts to defund Planned Parenthood and ordered that it keep getting Medicaid funds.
To every New Jerseyan, near and far: Happy #NationalNewJerseyDay! I’m honored to represent the great Garden State and the community that shaped me every single day. Here’s to all of us building a stronger NJ together. 🫶
📍City of Elizabeth Peterstown Cultural Festival 🎉 Great to celebrate our Italian American community in Peterstown and across the 8th 🇮🇹 Thanks to Mayor Bollwage for showing me around and to the Mazza family for their contributions to this community!
Every day, we fight back against the harmful impact of the Trump Administration’s immigration policies—policies that have spread fear and division in our neighborhoods. These are challenging times, but by standing together, we will persevere.
I want to thank Union County for listening to our community and standing up for what’s right. By rejecting any plan to use the former Union County Jail for ICE or private immigration detention, they showed that we can uphold our values while responsibly managing public resources.
Every day I’m fighting against Trump’s harmful immigration policies. The results of which have already had dire consequences in our district. That’s why I’m moved to speak out against the potential harm of another private detention center opening in the 8th. Read my letter to Union County below 👇
Trump’s AI Action Plan & new executive orders are deeply troubling & undermine responsible AI innovation. My AI Caucus colleagues & I will keep fighting for policies that safeguard AI development & fully leverage the potential of AI for all Americans without giving a handout to Big Tech.
New: Congressional AI Caucus Democrats’ Statement on President Trump’s AI Action Plan and AI Executive Orders @dorismatsui.bsky.social @repbonamici.bsky.social @foushee.house.gov @hankjohnson.house.gov @mcbride.house.gov @repmcgovern.bsky.social @menendez.house.gov beyer.house.gov/news/documen...
Private detention centers don’t reflect the values of our district, our state, or our country. We’re pushing back against the Trump Admin’s plan to detain immigrants at Joint Base McGuire Dix-Lakehurst.
Trump lies. @housedemocrats.bsky.social deliver. We will always fight for all Americans and continue to offer a real path forward that delivers on America’s promise. 👊
