I am thankful President Trump and everyone attending last night's White House Correspondents' Dinner is safe. I'm grateful for the work of the first responders, particularly the brave Secret Service agent who reportedly was shot and saved by their protective vest. Plain and simple, political violence should not be the answer in a democracy.

Videos of masked ICE agents unlawfully detaining a US citizen and resident of Asbury Park were recorded on the morning of Wednesday, April 15 at the corner of Main Street and Bangs Avenue. As seen in the videos, federal agents ignored our constituent’s repeated attempts to identify herself as a US citizen and forced her to be separated from her young children who were watching nearby from their family vehicle. After being detained for 8 hours, she was subsequently released from Delaney Hall in Newark without charges and left with noticeable bruising from being physically handled by ICE agents. ICE's actions of separating families and targeting US citizens continues to be horrific and unacceptable. We have been in contact with the family to offer our support and to connect them with resources. We have also reached out to the Monmouth County Prosecutor and to the New Jersey Attorney General to ask for their assistance in protecting our residents. instagram.com/reel/DXLHp_Yjr…

As the proud host of the highly anticipated World Cup, New Jerseyans should feel excited about the economic boom and the camaraderie of nations it will bring to our state, and not have to worry about price gouging and additional financial strain to NJ Transit. FIFA is positioned to make billions of dollars in profit, and forcing our transit system to foot the bill for expanded access is an unacceptable cost to our residents. I applaud the Governor’s firm stance and strong initiative to dispute the additional costs on our transit system.
Governor Mikie Sherrill@GovSherrillNJ

We inherited an agreement where FIFA is providing $0 for transportation to the World Cup. And while NJ TRANSIT is stuck with a $48 million bill to safely get fans to and from games, FIFA is making $11 billion. I’m not going to stick New Jersey commuters with that tab for years to come. FIFA should pay for the rides. But if they don’t – I’m not going to let New Jersey get taken for one.

Governor Mikie Sherrill@GovSherrillNJ·
I am appalled by the horrifying attack on a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan, and I strongly condemn this act of violence. My heart is with Michigan’s Jewish community, and I commend the swift response by security personnel that ensured none of the staff or children were harmed. Every person – of every faith and background – deserves to feel safe in their house of worship and in their community. My office is closely monitoring the situation. While there are no specific threats to New Jersey at this time, I am working with federal, state, and county authorities across our state to ensure the safety of our communities. If you see or hear of any suspicious activity, please contact local law enforcement or report it to the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness at njohsp.gov/report or by calling 1-866-4-SAFE-NJ (1-866-472-3365).

Governor Sherrill's budget tackles our fiscal challenges head on by cutting the deficit nearly in half while protecting relief for working families. The proposal reduces spending by more than $2 billion, takes on corporations like pharmacy benefit managers, and holds big tech accountable when they target our kids. At the same time, it protects vital property tax relief programs like StayNJ and ANCHOR and makes the full pension payment. I commend the Governor for putting forward an aggressive and responsible budget that keeps New Jersey focused affordability and long term stability.

#TeamMonmouth crisscrossed Monmouth County today by marching in our two St. Patrick’s Day Parades. I was honored to march in Rumson/Fair Haven and Assemblymembers Donlon and Peterpaul marched in Asbury Park. Congratulations to Grand Marshall Grace Hanlon (Rumson) and Grand Marshall Kim Guadagno (Asbury Park) and to the parade committees of both. Great to celebrate our awesome Irish-American community and their heritage and culture! @GraceHanlon @AsburyParkChmbr @RFH_Regional @Rumson_Borough @inAsburyParkNJ ☘️ ☘️ ☘️

Burchett on Tony Gonzales: “A male harassing a female employee, I just can’t stomach it dude. I’ve got a wife and a daughter. He needs to go.” Luna says she’s prepared to file a censure resolution. Boebert: “He’s a disgusting pig. The speaker should do something about it.”

@DawnFantasia_NJ I voted for a budget that gave critical funding to my district and that’s my priority. I think we are in agreement that future budgets should be done differently and I am glad to see that @GovSherrillNJ is doing that.

@vingopal Thank you for clarifying that you did not advocate for any of those. You did, however, vote yes for all of those - to the tune of millions of taxpayer dollars. I'll reiterate that there is a real danger in lumping legitimate needs with arbitrary wants, as evidenced above.

Sen. @vingopal, I am so happy you posted this. Being that you voted YES on every single past budget fraught with "unnecessary spending" you referenced, we're looking forward to following your vote this year & that you won't submit (or vote YES on) any last minute pork add-ons.

Proud to stand with @GovSherrillNJ It’s time to challenge the status quo. New Jersey families are working hard and they deserve to feel the return on their investment. We have to rein in unnecessary spending and stay laser-focused on affordability across New Jersey. That means scrutinizing every dollar and asking a simple question: does this put our residents first? So happy to see this Governor lead on this issue.

When I ran for Governor, I promised a different kind of leadership for New Jersey and that means making state government more transparent. 

Today, we laid out the state of New Jerseys finances: we face a serious structural deficit. 

Let me be clear: we won’t raise taxes on New Jerseyans or kick the can down the road. We’re finding savings and making government more accountable.
