We should be enhancing people's ability to participate in our elections, not making it harder. That's why I joined @repnellie.bsky.social and my NJ colleagues to demand that USPS reject the Admin's attempt to control mail-in voting. We will always stand for free and fair elections.

It is a blatant effort to not just break our immigration system but to break those who believed in the promise of America. We won’t abandon them and we will never waver in this fight.

House Republicans had another opportunity today to pass a War Powers Resolution. They once again failed to do the right thing. They own this war and all the fallout from it.
