We just won our Senate race! As a son of immigrants, a public school kid, I never could’ve imagined I’d get to serve as a US Senator. I’m deeply humbled and grateful to NJ and for everyone who got us here. I promise I’ll serve with honor and integrity as a public servant for all.
The first game of the World Cup just kicked off! ⚽️🏆
This is going to be an amazing 39 days. My boys are so excited to have the world's best players right in our backyard. I hope you take some time to enjoy this incredible experience leading up to the Finals here in New Jersey!
I got a chance this week to spend time with Ms. Rachel at the Capitol as she advocated for children being caught in the middle of broken and cruel immigration policies.
Power doesn’t always come from our title, it can come from the depths of our humanity and dedication to care. Watching Ms Rachel advocate for kids outside Delaney Hall and at other detention facilities, it is so clear how much she cares. She serves as a model for our humanity for millions of children across our country; it’s time the grown ups pay attention too. Thank you, Ms. Rachel. Let’s keep up the work together for the kids — all the kids.
Inflation is rising and crushing American families at the pump and in the grocery store, all because of Trump's war in Iran that is continuing to spiral out of control.
The American people can end this chaos in November and elect Democrats who will stop the war and lower costs.
With all we know about ICE's abuse in places like Delaney Hall and the affordability crisis hurting American families, Trump and Republicans are ramming through billions in new ICE funding. It's either money for you or money for ICE's lawlessness. That's our choice in November.
BREAKING: The House passes Republicans' $70 billion bill to fund ICE for the rest of the Trump administration, ending a months-long stalemate. https://t.co/bPRMyiV6vW
You will see a lot more of this anti-election rhetoric by Trump and his Republican allies leading up to the midterms. These are attacks on voters and the democratic process. We need to all speak out and defend our votes. Every voter deserves to have their voice heard.
Speaker Johnson, like Trump, sowing doubts on CA results.
I asked him about any evidence to back up their claims
“Some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it is impossible to prove,” he said. “But think everybody knows instinctively something is wrong here.”
GeoGroup has on multiple occasions denied me access to Delaney Hall, so the fact that they claim "qualified immunity" because they're subject to government oversight is a ridiculous and lawless argument. They will be held accountable for their actions.

Remember, the constant efforts by Trump to disparage and undermine journalists are not separate from the purposeful dismantling of 60 Minutes and other independent media. This is all connected and coordinated.
WOW -- Trump crashes out and cuts his interview with Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged
"You're either crooked or you're stupid. Let's call it quits. Because I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her."
"I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads.
Just shameful. This ballroom is one giant grift for Trump to enrich his friends. Meanwhile your gas prices are still over $4 a gallon, inflation is up, and there's no end in sight.
This is why we need to take back Congress.
More than half of the publicly identified donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion, according to a report from a government watchdog group. https://t.co/wEAqxMA7AG
This is the next generation of leadership in New Jersey, but their races aren’t over yet. Rachel, Zach, and Rebecca all have competitive elections against Republican incumbents in November. Let’s all work to get them elected and take back the House. END
New Jersey’s primaries on Tuesday made it clear that voters want a new generation of leadership who will step up to fight for affordability, integrity, and to finally hold this corrupt president accountable. Here are those leaders. THREAD
Cape May Mayor Zack Mullock is a local leader with real roots in South Jersey who knows his community and is ready to fight for it in Washington. I need more fellow South Jerseyans I can work with to strengthen our part of the state that is often overlooked. I know @ZMullock will serve NJ-2 and South Jersey well in Congress. (5/6)
I’m leaving the Capitol now at 530am after 19 hrs of votes where Senate Republicans passed $70B for ICE/CBP with no accountability after killings of Alex Pretti/Renee Good and no reforms after chaos at Delaney Hall. Zero dollars to help your family pay bills and high gas prices.
I just proposed an amendment on the Senate floor that would create an investigation into the unsafe conditions at Delaney Hall and require ICE and Geo Group to fix the problems. The Republicans voted against this critical need.
ICE is keeping high schoolers, pregnant women, and people with illnesses in inhumane conditions for one reason: because they want to.
The cruelty of places like Delaney Hall is intentional, and we will do everything in our power to shut it down.
New Jersey lawmakers are fighting back against the brutalization of immigrants detained at Newark’s Delaney Hall.
“The cruelty is intentional,” Sen. Andy Kim tells Rolling Stone. https://t.co/xO9JBNjI9N
We're seeing a revolving door between ICE and the private prison industry. The new head of ICE is a former VP at GeoGroup, the company that runs over a dozen detention centers, including Delaney Hall. This is corruption using taxpayer dollars, and we need to stop it.
The American people deserve an end to this reckless and illegal war. Thank you to the House for having the courage to stand up for Americans in a bipartisan vote to stop this war. The Senate should follow.
The House has passed a resolution to limit President Donald Trump’s war powers in Iran, a significant rebuke to Trump and his handling of the conflict. https://t.co/7xwuN4SAHl
