I stand with @Ilhan and her family. Following the prosecution of @RepLaMonica, the raid on Ilhan’s home—just weeks before the midterms—marks a dangerous escalation in a clear pattern of the Trump Administration using federal law enforcement to target political opponents. We will not be intimidated. We will not back down. The American people deserve answers, and we will demand transparency and accountability from DHS and DOJ.
Exciting news: The Five Corners Branch of @JCFPL_NJ is open after renovations! Proud to see this library back open for our neighbors! 📚🫶 https://t.co/jkRv2RgkBd

Safe, affordable housing is a fundamental right. But too many families are being priced out of the very communities they helped build. Grateful to join @HudCoTweet Exec Guy and @SenatorAndyKim to confront this crisis and work toward solutions. I was proud to vote for the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, and I’ll keep fighting so families can afford to put down roots—and stay—right here at home.
Modern, reliable transit connects people to jobs, strengthens our economy, and transforms communities. We’ll fight for every dollar our commuters deserve. Tying transit funding to marriage and birth rates is absurd. Just as we fought for—and won—funding for Gateway, we will win this fight, too. https://t.co/aKBmO3kez8
Our office has been in contact with officials about the heartbreaking video of a father in Harrison being detained by ICE in front of his children and taken to Elizabeth Detention Center. The Trump Administration’s mass deportation campaign is tearing families apart and inflicting trauma that children may carry for the rest of their lives. If you or someone you know needs assistance with an immigration matter or any other federal issue, visit https://t.co/sKMADb5Iiu. Our team is here to help.
Al Coutinho was a pillar of the Ironbound—a tireless champion for his community, education, and our youth. ⚽️🙏 Naming this field at Riverfront Park in his honor will keep his legacy alive in every young person who plays here. We miss Al deeply, but we carry his mission forward every day.
From Minnesota to Maine to Texas—and now New York, just across the river from Jersey City. No one should have to live in fear of being shot in broad daylight. Yet that fear is already at our doorstep. We cannot afford complacency. We cannot answer with silence. Abolish ICE.
📍 Columbus Day Wreath Laying in @CityofHoboken 🇮🇹 Proud to celebrate the rich heritage and countless contributions of our Italian-American community! A bittersweet occasion as we mark Commissioner Romano’s final wreath laying in office. Grateful for his years of dedicated service to Hoboken and our broader community! 🇮🇹❤️
