She’s here! We just welcomed our beautiful baby girl and words can’t describe how blessed my family feels. Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I’m beyond grateful. Thank you, everyone, for your love and support. It means the world 💕💕
Rep. LaMonica McIver

Proudly Representing New Jersey’s 10th Congressional District
Hey NJ-10! Get ready for a new month of mobile office hours! Team LaMonica can’t wait to help you with resources, questions, and help navigating the services available to you. Come to our first office hours on Tuesday, Oct 6!
The time has come! I am packing up my baby bag to go to the hospital! Here's what I'm bringing... 👶🏾🍼
People might find it crazy that even though I’m facing 17 years in prison, I made the decision to get pregnant. But, at the end of the day, this is something I couldn’t let be consumed by this administration. I refuse to let them take my joy or my future.
Thank you for showing up for our last office hours of September in Jersey City yesterday! My team is happy we got to close out the month by helping you all with questions, resources, and navigating what's available to you in NJ-10. Can’t wait to see you again in October!
Honored to be recognized by @campaign4kids.bsky.social as a Champion for Children in the House. From fighting for free summer meals to securing federal dollars for education in NJ-10, I’m proud to stand up for kids and families. And I’m just getting started.
This Sunday, NJ-10 students and families will hear from representatives from all five U.S. Service Academies. Don’t miss your chance to learn about the nomination process, how to apply, and opportunities available to you!
This week in the 10th, Team LaMonica was… 🎖️ Preparing to host NJ-10 families for Service Academy Day on Oct. 4 🚰 Securing $2M to improve pump station in West Orange 🤝 Listening to constituents and helping them with what they need
Before I shared my pregnancy with anyone I was hiding my bump (sometimes effectively and sometimes not so much). Here’s some behind the scenes of being pregnant in Congress.
Mullin can’t speak honestly about Delaney Hall if he’s never walked through its doors. People are suffering. I’ve seen it firsthand, I’ve heard from detainees. It’s brutal. So because Mullin can’t show up for his job, I made sure he heard the truth from me.
My wonderful colleagues and team threw me a baby shower last week! Their love, support, and friendship made me even more excited to welcome my baby into the world. I’m grateful to have this community by my side as I grow my family. I can’t thank them enough!
NJ-10, please stay safe as storms bring dangerous conditions to our state. A State of Emergency is taking effect at 5 p.m. today. Charge your phone, fuel your car, secure outdoor items, stay away from downed power lines, and avoid flooded roads!
My statement on the Lt. Governor’s resignation.
Tierra Walker was a mother, daughter, friend. She deserved a chance. Republicans denied her that. This administration’s attacks on reproductive health are putting lives at risk and stripping women of their agency every day. That is why I will keep fighting for the right to choose.
Tierra Walker died after she couldn’t get an abortion. Her family is suing Ken Paxton.
The case argues that Texas’ near-total abortion ban violates the state and U.S. constitutions. It is the first lawsuit over a death linked to an abortion ban.

1 month out! The Congressional App Challenge deadline is approaching, and we want NJ-10 to show out. This is a great way for students to test their coding skills and bring a bright idea to life! Please share this with the students, friends, or coders in your life!
I am facing 17 years in federal prison for doing my job and standing up to Trump’s merciless immigration enforcement campaign. I am finding the strength to keep standing up every single day.

McIver’s inner strength is next level. She is running for reelection while fighting efforts by the Trump administration to jail her. Plus, she’s repping her constituents and caring for her family.

The Passaic River has endured decades of toxic pollution. That’s why I worked with @menendez.house.gov and @repnellie.bsky.social to push for this proposed $125M settlement to move critical cleanup work forward! This is great progress—I'm proud to fight for cleaner, safer communities for NJ-10!

I can’t put into words how evil this is. People are dying at the hands of ICE in the street, and behind the walls of detention centers, moms are losing their babies. This is why ICE oversight is necessary—to keep exposing this unimaginable cruelty. Trump needs to answer for this.

ICE says it has no updated information on the number of miscarriages after 3 October 2025. Lawmakers, advocates and immigration attorneys have raised alarms that pregnant detainees are not receiving b...

My constituents called on me to stand up to the abuse at Delaney Hall—so I did. It's my job to conduct oversight and hold the admin accountable. Who else will? Threatening me with 17 years in prison for exposing their abuse won’t work. I told @garrisonhayes.bsky.social I’m not staying silent.
From returning more than $550,000 to constituents to hosting mobile office hours and connecting neighbors with the resources they need, Team LaMonica is ALWAYS here to help NJ-10. Filing some of our wins for New Jerseyans!
I’m proud to have secured $2M+ to improve critical pump stations in West Orange. This means: 🚰 Reliable wastewater service 🌱More protection for local water 🛠️Safer, efficient infrastructure This major investment for NJ-10 will make a real difference in daily life!
The abuse at Delaney Hall is horrifying. We sounded the alarm from the beginning: ICE is cruel and relentless. ICE has killed American citizens in front of us—at Delaney alone, they’re up to 3 deaths. People are being mistreated and it’s happening all over the country. Listen to more at WURD Radio
Too many people are struggling with mental health challenges, especially youth, LGBTQ+, and minority communities. This Suicide Prevention Month, we remember those we’ve lost and fight to support those struggling. If you need help, call 988.
While Trump is wasting money on AI air traffic control systems, Newark airport is suffering major ground delays from equipment outages. I will keep fighting for updated air traffic control infrastructure, not more AI, to keep our airports running smoothly.

On Sunday, October 4th, my team and Team Menendez are hosting a Service Academy Day for NJ! Attendees will hear directly from each service academy and get an inside look at the application process and opportunities available. All NJ-10 students and families are welcome!
Wishing those observing Yom Kippur in NJ-10 and across the country a meaningful holiday and easy fast.
This week in the 10th, Team LaMonica was… 📚 Celebrating the opening of the Dreamscape Learning Lab at Caldwell University 🤝 Connecting with our Linden neighbors during mobile office hours 💙 Supporting our community at Essex Counseling Services Community Resource Day
It was great spending time with the Linden community this week during our mobile office hours. My team enjoyed meeting with neighbors, answering questions, and connecting you with resources. Join us for our next mobile office hours in Jersey City on Sept. 28. See you there!
Caldwell, we’re grateful you took the time last week to come out, connect with us, and let us help with resources. Team LaMonica is also at Essex Counseling Services Community Resource Day from 10am-2pm today! See you at the next office hours on Sept. 28 in Jersey City!
Why am I standing up to this admin? Simple. Parents are being separated from their children by ICE, families are losing SNAP, and healthcare is being stripped away. I’m facing 17 years in prison, but I’m not scared. I will always fight for NJ-10.
