While New Jersey cannot recover the years wasted by Trenton Democrats’ ideological pursuits, we can refuse to waste more of it.
Read Senator Amato's full op-ed in the comments ⬇️
Trenton Democrats have always dismissed concerns about election security. Now the cat is out of the bag and thousands of non-citizens have been found on NJ's voter rolls. Senator Amato introduced legislation to require proof of citizenship for voter registration at the MVC.
🚨 Just this year: Anheuser-Busch. Exxon. Samsung. The list keeps growing.
Every company that leaves our state takes jobs and opportunity with it. Yet, Trenton Democrats refuse to change course, doubling down on their high-tax policies driving employers out of New Jersey.
💡 Gov. Sherrill is touting a $13 million utility bill credit for New Jerseyans, and while any relief is welcome, families deserve far more
Last year, Sen. Carmen Amato proposed legislation that would have provided more than 10x, totaling $131 million in savings to our residents
The NJ I-Bank remains a vital resource for communities working to modernize aging water systems, protect waterways, and deliver safe water for families across the state. This allocation of funds will deliver meaningful support to achieve those goals.

Sen. Amato: Thank you to the Center for Effective Lawmaking for this honor. I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve the 9th District in the State Senate.
Proud to be your voice in Trenton and to fight every day for Ocean County's taxpayers, seniors, students, and families.
Late night in Trenton where our members stood up for transparency & accountability.
Taxpayers were promised a better budget process. Instead, they got another budget negotiated behind closed doors and rushed through at the last minute.
New Jersey deserves better.
Approaching a shutdown and yet, we still haven't seen the budget we're expected to vote on.
What we do know is Gov. Sherrill's proposal cuts critical services like Meals on Wheels, programs seniors depend on.
I'm fighting for Ocean County and proud to be your voice in Trenton.
🚨 72 hours until a government shutdown. Where's the budget?
We're ready and waiting. Trenton Democrats are still negotiating a $60 billion budget behind closed doors with your tax dollars. ⏳
Sen. Amato: My legislative district is home to a large population of seniors who have worked their entire lives to build financial stability.
They deserve stronger protections and the assurance that New Jersey's laws will hold criminals accountable.

Legislation by Senator Amato to strengthen education requirements for NJ real estate professionals passed the Senate.
By strengthening education requirements, this bill helps ensure licensees have the tools and knowledge needed to best serve their clients https://t.co/ymHGWxFMBs
That's why our delegation sponsored legislation to repeal the law enforcement directive restricting cooperation with federal immigration authorities and restore cooperation between law enforcement agencies. Public safety must always come first.
The incident in Manahawkin, is a stark reminder of the dangers faced by law enforcement officers every day. New Jersey should not be making it harder for local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to work together to keep our communities safe.

Sen Amato: The 9th Legislative District is home to one of the largest senior populations in New Jersey, and protecting our elders from financial exploitation and other forms of abuse remains a top priority for our district delegation.

📚 Restoring school aid should be a top priority in this year's state budget.
Senate Republicans are standing with parents, teachers, and students to fight for a fair funding formula that delivers stability for schools, protects taxpayers, and puts students first. @9thDistrictNJ
Gov. Sherrill's budget proposal cuts $100K of funding for vital services like Meals on Wheels for seniors.
At the same time, she is dedicating an additional $13 MILLION in taxpayer $ to fight the deportation of illegal immigrants.
Those priorities speak for themselves.
Senator Amato is fighting to ensure Pinelands communities receive fair treatment under New Jersey’s school funding formula. Districts limited by state-imposed development restrictions should not be placed at a disadvantage.
Sen. Amato: Today, I testified with my colleagues in support of our legislation to restore critical school aid to the Pinelands
Communities affected by development restrictions deserve fair school funding and I'll continue fighting to ensure they receive the support they deserve
