In 2022, Congress enacted the PACT Act to support veterans exposed to toxic burn pits—yet they left civilian law enforcement behind. I am marking #PoliceWeek by introducing the Kenya Merritt Renewing our PACT Act to ensure these workers can finally access treatment.

I visited Delaney Hall with @menendez.house.gov to see the inhumane conditions of ICE detention facilities. The treatment at Delaney Hall is cruel, and meant to destroy people’s spirits. This is unAmerican and it must change. gothamist.com/news/conditi...

Reps. Rob Menendez and Nellie Pou conducted an oversight visit of the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark on Monday.

Inflation is out of control from Trump’s Iran war. Now inflation is rising faster than wages. Working families are struggling to afford health care and gas bills. Trump is BUILDING A BALLROOM, and painting the reflecting pool blue? Outrageous. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/12/b...

Inflation Accelerates After Weeks of War in Iran

Happy Mother’s Day to all our beautiful, brave, and loving mothers in New Jersey and across America! 💜

It’s for FIFA to stop this chaos. @frankpallone.govpeeps.us and I are deeply concerned by reports that FIFA is employing opaque pricing, shifting rules, and potentially deceptive practices that are making it difficult for fans to access seats. Read more:

No masked agents. Plain and simple.

This week nurses are on Capitol Hill talking about worker safety, emergency services, insurance shortfalls, and much more. Our nurses are the heartbeat of our country and need our constant support. My door is always open to our health care heroes. 🩺🩻⚕️🚒

Men and women who stood shoulder to shoulder with our troops should not be left behind when they come home sick. I am proud to introduce the Bipartisan Renewing Our PACT Act to fix a gap for civilians exposed to cancer-causing burn pits.

The World Cup's $11 billion profit estimate for FIFA means they can spare train ticket subsidies for fans. Read our letter for details. @menendez.house.gov @repdangoldman.bsky.social

Happy Earth Day! Now more than ever—we must commit to leaving the planet greener, healthier, and better for the next generation. 🌎💚

It was great to kickstart the day at the New Jersey Building and Construction Trade Breakfast in D.C. Our tradesmen and women are building the future of this country every day—and need our support more than ever. Thank you for having me and see you soon! 🤝💪

This country made a promise to Dreamers—this administration is now breaking it.

Ever since I asked ICE boss Todd Lyons about ICE’s role at the World Cup, I’ve heard from residents, fans, and people across the US who are worried about the games. They’re worried about being priced out. They’re worried about their safety. Yet we still don’t have clear answers.

Big-city politicians are starting to worry about the World Cup

A long-planned spectacle collides with the messy domestic politics and global instability of the present.

I voted YES on the War Powers Resolution. Trump’s war has gone on too long, already taking the lives of our brave men and women in uniform. Choosing between Donald Trump and America, House Republicans today once again picked Trump.

In remembrance of the Holocaust, may the light illuminate our way forward, and the flames pay tribute to the memories of those lost but never forgotten. 🤍

This isn’t the Club World Cup: since last summer the world has seen the brutality of Trump’s ICE raids. I am glad FIFA is taking this seriously but we need certainty. ICE raids at stadiums would only cause chaos and confusion. The games start in 59 days. ⏱️ www.nytimes.com/athletic/719...

Happy Vaisakhi! Wishing everyone celebrating across North Jersey and beyond a vibrant Vaisakhi filled with joy, prosperity, and unity! 💜

Massive congratulations to the admitted nominees for the United States Service Academies! Your service is truly commendable and makes our nation shine. 🇺🇸 Thanks for representing our district with honor!

Americans deserve a Congress they can trust. Our behavior as lawmakers must be above reproach. At a minimum, it is clear that Reps. Swalwell and Gonzalez have betrayed their constituents, staff, and their oath of office. (1/2)

Our state and nation are strong thanks to our labor unions who build it every day. Today I had the opportunity to meet with labor leaders to discuss the challenges they are facing, listen to their concerns, and the work ahead. A strong Jersey is union built! 💪

Yesterday I met with the Meadowlands Chamber of Commerce to discuss the flag city celebrations! 🤝

📍 East Rutherford | Huge win for Jersey! Today I joined Bergen County Sheriff Anthony Cureton and law enforcement officers to celebrate securing $1,031,000 for World Cup security efforts. 67 days to go, let’s make it happen 💪🤝

The dangers of federal overreach regarding elections—both in New Jersey and across the country—are not just theoretical. They are immediate and real. Today our NJ democratic delegation is leading calls to stop this baseless attack and for the USPS to protect our democracy. Read more:

I’m relieved that the two American pilots are safe after such a dangerous situation. I’m deeply grateful for the courage and dedication of the men and women who helped bring them home. 🇺🇸

Sending love, joy, and Happy Easter wishes to all those celebrating in North Jersey! 🐣 ¡Felices Pascuas!

Chag Pesach Sameach to all celebrating in New Jersey and beyond!
