As we begin the celebration of Black History Month, I am thinking of those who stood up, spoke out, and took action when they saw injustices in the world – people like my friend, John Lewis. Carrying that spirit and their legacy with me this month and always.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govFeb 1(source)
Democrats and Republicans asked the new Secretary of State to release the funding and he agreed, BUT much of the aid still isn't flowing. Every hour this aid doesn't resume threatens lives. This is unacceptable and tragic.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govFeb 1(source)
10 days in to the Trump Admin…and it’s chaos. Congressionally-approved funding for domestic & foreign aid has been FROZEN by Donald Trump. This includes money for fighting infectious diseases that could threaten Americans to global humanitarian aid like FOOD & WATER that saves countless lives.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 29(source)
Impacts on New Jerseyans will be felt in the hours, days, and weeks ahead. My office is committed to doing everything we can to support people, but I strongly urge the Trump administration to consider the harm they are already doing.

State Universities – A significant portion of the budget for our state universities are funded with federal dollars. Outside of providing an education, these universities oversee invaluable research, employ thousands, and are pillars of our state.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 29(source)
Domestic Violence Shelters - Federal funding for hotlines, shelters, and legal counsel for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault is frozen. If this continues, there will be reduced resources for those looking to leave abusive situations.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 29(source)
Community Health Centers – 578,000 New Jerseyans currently receive care from community health centers. As we deal with the spread of the flu, RSV, norovirus, and other infectious diseases, our health centers may not make payroll in just a few weeks.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 29(source)
Veterans – Many programs in our state that provide meals and support to our homeless veterans are immediately in danger of running out of funding. Families of veterans may see a pause in rental assistance and other support.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 29(source)
All day, my office has fielded calls regarding the funding for programs and services that Trump has unconstitutionally sought to freeze. Here are just some of the communities in New Jersey facing the consequences of the administration’s recklessness. 🧵
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 28(source)
Trump’s illegal and unconstitutional funding freeze puts federal funding passed into law by both Democrats and Republicans in Congress in jeopardy. It is already having devastating consequences. Its costs will be borne by everyday Americans.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 26(source)
Our government and institutions are in desperate need of more transparency and accountability, not less. Trump’s illegal firing of more than a dozen Inspectors General will allow government corruption and abuse to go uninhibited. Congress must act to ensure power is held accountable.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 23(source)
The United States spends more on health care than any other country, but we still have the highest rate of maternal mortality among our peer countries. On Maternal Health Awareness day, I am committed as ever to pushing our government to act to bring down maternal mortality.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 20(source)
Just as I have with every president, I will continue to fight for what matters most to New Jerseyans, and do all I can to protect the freedoms and liberty of all Americans.
Sen. Cory Booker@booker.senate.govJan 20(source)
Every day the words and actions of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. inspire millions across this country. The work he did throughout his life has changed our country for the better and will continue to inspire people around the world to work toward his dream.
