Representing New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District

I joined neighbors across Belleville, Bloomfield, Maplewood, and the Tri-Town for National Night Out. We’re celebrating our firefighters, police officers, and EMTs who keep our communities safe every single day. Thank you to our first responders who serve all across our district!

Private companies like GEO Group are getting paid to keep people detained. Giving people proper medical care costs them money; neglect doesn't. Medical abuse is now a business model, and ICE is encouraging it. Edwin Jovanny López Cornejo should still be alive today.

Edwin Jovanny López Cornejo debería estar vivo hoy. Con el tratamiento médico adecuado, tal vez lo estaría. GEO Group debe rendir cuentas. Delaney Hall y todos los centros de detención deben cerrarse. ICE debe ser abolido. Hoy me comprometí con su familia a exigir justicia.

ICE activity has been reported in our district. Everyone has rights, regardless of citizenship status. You don’t have to open your door without a signed judicial warrant. You have the right to remain silent and to speak to a lawyer. My office is always here to help.

100 days ago, I took an oath to fight for New Jersey's 11th. Since then, it's been about showing up for our towns, our small businesses, and our neighbors, because that's how we make government actually work for people. 100 days in, and I'm just getting started!

NJ-11: Severe storms are moving through today into tonight, with potential damaging winds, flash flooding, and a tornado risk statewide. If a storm hits, stay inside. Never drive through flooded roads. Stay far away from downed power lines and monitor local alerts. Stay safe!

I formed the Defend the 14th Amendment Task Force with my colleagues in Congress to make sure the American people understand exactly what is at stake and hold the line. You cannot have democracy without equality, and you cannot have equality without the 14th Amendment.

Congress is back in session and here are 3 things you need to know: 🗳️Johnson tries to ram voter suppression bill through budget reconciliation. 💸 Trump’s illegal war in Iran has cost Americans billions. 💳 This “privacy” bill just protects the gun lobby and doesn’t save lives.

As Trump and this radicalized Supreme Court wage a coordinated attack on our democracy, my colleagues and I are standing together to defend the 14th Amendment. Equal protection, due process, and equal justice are not optional, and we're not backing down from this fight.

This Fourth of July, I had the honor of celebrating with neighbors across Chatham, Parsippany, Maplewood, and Glen Ridge. From parades to block parties, the spirit of this district shows up every single time. Grateful to represent every corner of NJ-11 🇺🇸

One year ago, Trump and Republicans signed H.R. 1 into law. New Jersey families are still paying for it. I’m going to keep fighting to tax the rich instead of working families, reverse these cuts, and fight for health care that’s actually guaranteed.
