Targeting @govmurphy.bsky.social is simply a distraction from the harm this administration is causing to communities across the country. We will continue to fight back every single day.
Alina Habba continues to push the Trump Administration’s false narrative that they are only deporting criminals. We’ve seen them go after people like Adriana, a torture victim with legal protections to stay in this country.
Alina Habba, the interim U.S. attorney in New Jersey, said she had directed lawyers in her office to investigate Gov. Phil Murphy over a statewide policy that limits how much help local police can provide federal immigration officers. She previously represented President Trump in civil lawsuits.
Congratulations to everyone who participated in today’s Jersey City Half and Full Marathons!  It was fun to get the kids out there to cheer everyone on, especially our favorite runner!  Thanks to the organizers and hope everyone gets some rest!
Great to see the @americanbar.org President in DC last week! I was proud to read Bill's powerful statement on the House Floor, and I will continue to stand alongside him in support of our federal judiciary. You can watch the speech below 👇
In this moment, we cannot be silent nor accept attacks on the federal judiciary as something normal. That’s why I went to the House Floor to uplift @americanbar.org's work and encourage others to take action👇
The whole team was out this morning - kiddos included - to support our constituents. 📍With Asw. Pintor Marin for a Passport Clinic in Newark! 📍In Harrison for the county’s Hunger Free program. Stay dry and warm out there and as always, our office is here to serve you. Call us at (201) 309-0301!
Yesterday’s crash was a heartbreaking tragedy. Since taking office, we’ve heard from our constituents and have been sounding the alarms about non-essential helicopters. Today, I spoke with NJ Spotlight about the work we’ve done and what we can do moving forward to prevent this from happening again.
Helicopter tours have a controversial and deadly history in the U.S., with growing calls to end or limit the flights. Twenty-five people have been killed in New York City in sightseeing helicopter accidents over the last 40 years, according to federal data.
Today was a tragic day in the district. The loss of six lives is horrific. We are working with all levels of government including the NTSB and will continue to do so. This is also a painful reminder of the work that remains to keep our communities and skies safe. I’m committed to seeing it through.
Devastated to hear of a helicopter crash in the Hudson near Jersey City. Our team is prepared to assist and will continue to provide updates. Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and anyone impacted by this incident. Grateful as always for the brave first responders who are on scene.
House Republicans make it seem like they are against cutting funding for healthcare and benefits for seniors but fold like a cheap tent from Temu every time. All lip service, no spine. These proposed cuts will hurt so many Americans, which is why I was a hard NO on today’s vote. The fight continues.
Recently married and changed your name? No passport? Can’t find your birth certificate? House Rs passed a bill to take away your right to vote. This doesn’t make our elections more secure. It makes it more difficult and costly for Americans to participate in our elections. That’s why I voted NO.
Do you believe banks should charge excessive overdraft fees — even if you're just a few dollars short? I don’t, which is why I voted against House Republicans' attempt to undo protections put in place by the Biden Administration. The fight continues, and House Dems will continue to be on your side.
We have so many challenges as a nation that we need to take on - together. But today’s hearing was another example of the GOP’s refusal to call out the immense harm that Trump is causing to our country. If Rs are going to sit idly by as if these are normal times, we will call them out. Watch below 👇
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 👇
The U.S. has long been a leader in global public health, and we should all be fighting to keep it that way. On #WorldHealthDay, we honor the people who make this possible—and recommit ourselves to the fight against those who seek to undermine it. Public health deserves protection, not attack.
Last night, Senate GOP had the chance to vote with Dems in support of: ✅Protecting Medicaid ✅Preventing another SignalGate ✅Stopping Trump’s tariffs Instead they voted against these commonsense measures. And we can expect the same from the House GOP this week. House Democrats aren’t backing down.
The Department of Homeland Security has confirmed that email notices regarding the Uniting for Ukraine program were sent in error. If you have further questions or concerns regarding immigration status, our office can help. Please call us at (201) 309-0301 to speak with a member of our team.
Our team has received concerned inquiries regarding the status of the Uniting For Ukraine program. We believe the emails in question were sent by accident and will provide all pertinent updates. If you have ANY questions or receive ANY communication from DHS, please contact us at (201) 309-0301.
