I had a great visit with volunteers at the EmPoWER Somerset & Pioneer Family Success Center open house & ribbon-cutting in Somerville — a wonderful community gathering place for Somerset County residents & families in need.

Keep up the good work @PioneerFSC & @EmPoWERSomerset

Terrible news out of Pittsburgh. Such violence and hatred toward one another is not who we are as a Nation. And the targeting of a house of worship is especially heinous. Heidi and I are heartbroken today. — L.L.

@dragonfly08876 I sit on the Committee that was tasked with moving the opioids package thru Congress & onto the president’s desk.

And my bill to expand the grant program for combating Hepatitis C to include infections associated with illicit drug use was part of the package signed into law.

"This is how Congress is supposed to work," Rep. Leonard Lance, R-Clinton Township, said when the bill was sent to Trump's desk last month. "We see a problem in our communities and we work in a bipartisan effort to take action.” https://t.co/p9xrrdZhgZ

“U.S. Rep. Leonard Lance (R-NJ) successfully secured provisions he authored in the newly signed America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018 that will help improve water safety for his constituents in New Jersey.” https://t.co/tVEzlV1ajG

My casework team is on the ground in Dover now and already providing assistance to those residents & businesses displaced by Monday’s massive fire.

Please visit the Dover Community Center located at 37 Essex Street North 07801 if you need assistance. — L.L.

[Rep. Leonard Lance @RepLanceNJ7]

This morning I joined Dover Mayor James Dodd in touring the damage along West Blackwell and North Warren Streets following Monday’s massive fire.

My casework staff will be on-hand to provide assistance to those residents & businesses displaced by the blaze.

New water infrastructure law authorizes water resource projects & policies nationwide, including two #NJ7 provisions of mine:

1. expedited removal of the Musconetcong River’s hazardous Warren Glen Dam.

2. fast-track feasibility study for Rahway River Basin flood mitigation.

[Rep. Leonard Lance @RepLanceNJ7]

I’ve spoken to Mayor James Dodd regarding the terrible fire that occurred in Dover today & offered whatever help the federal gov’t can render. I extend my thoughts to those displaced & commend the brave first responders who risked their lives to protect the residents of Dover.

The Saudi government’s explanation for the death of Jamal Khashoggi is not credible. The U.S. & int’l community must condemn Mr. Khashoggi’s murder in the strongest terms. And the U.S. must conduct its own independent investigation as required under the Global Magnitsky Act.

[Rep. Leonard Lance @RepLanceNJ7]

@DareGreatly13 @GOP My first call is triggering the Magnitsky Act — a law which I voted for — that requires the president to carry out an investigation into human rights violations & impose sanctions on any foreign person involved in the brutal murder of Mr. Khashoggi.

[Rep. Leonard Lance @RepLanceNJ7]

I disagree with this decision. Secretary Mnuchin should cancel his scheduled travel to Saudi Arabia later this month. The world must receive answers about what happened to journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. — L.L. https://t.co/8tDDpTchNu

Trenton Times editorial: “Further demonstrating the urgency of the issue, U.S. Rep. Leonard Lance (R-7th) has been at the helm of a bipartisan group of Congress members who have introduced legislation to expand the pilot program.”

@ReginaRyerson Yes I did. I sent an e-newsletter about two bills signed into law removing barriers that prevent pharmacists from helping patients find the least expensive way to purchase their prescription drugs.

I hope you found it informative. — L.L.
