Corruption eats away at our politics no matter where we live. That’s why we need to build an anti-corruption movement to fight against what we see from the Oval Office to our own communities. I went up to Trenton today to stand up for integrity in the face of corruption.

Congrats to @NJCitizenAction, which was instrumental in getting these protections passed and has launched a website to help New Jersey peeps take advantage of it.

Stephen Miller said White House was “actively looking at” options to suspend Habeas Corpus/due process in times of invasion/rebellion. Just hours later Miller posts these lies…but look at how he’s lying - saying that Members of Congress “riotously stormed and invaded.” MORE 1/9

Since DHS has been lying about this, allow me to correct the record. This scuffle, during which an ICE agent physically shoved me, occurred AFTER we had entered the Delaney Hall premises. We entered the facility, came BACK OUT to speak to the Mayor, and then ICE agents began shoving us. This is not how we entered the facility. We were escorted in by guards, because we have lawful oversight authority to be there.

We’re at Delaney Hall, an ICE prison in Newark that opened without permission from the city & in violation of local ordinances.
We’ve heard stories of what it’s like in other ICE prisons. We’re exercising our oversight authority to see for ourselves.

NEW: @GovMurphy has signed lawmakers' ballot redesign bill (S4142/A5116).
We’re considering our next steps in response to this development and how this law impacts voter and candidate rights. One thing is clear: the unconstitutional county line ballot is dead.

The next blue wave is headed for NJ7 🌊🌊 we're so grateful to have amazing grassroots organizations like @BlueWave_NJ fighting on our side.
It was an honor to stand alongside @MikieSherrill, @LamonicaMciver, @JoeSalernoNJ, @andykimNJ and all the incredible Democrats helping us #FlipNJ7 and take back the House.

Young people should feel confident in their ability to afford their own home. But in every conversation I have with young people, I hear how concerned they are by the rising cost of rent and home prices.
The next generation shouldn't be struggling to afford their first home more than previous generations. In Congress, I will work to make housing more affordable and build a realistic path to homeownership for young people.

In 2018, our blue wave helped us capture the House & change the course of American history.
We’re fired up & ready to do so once again!
Thanks to @BlueWave_NJ for hosting & to everyone who came out to support @AndyKimNJ, @suealtman, & @LamonicaMciver in Montclair yesterday. 🌊

On behalf of Chairman Jones, the New Jersey Democratic State Committee extends its prayers and best wishes to @RepDonaldPayne and his family during this difficult time.

This is monumental and a complete 180 from the previous legal posture of the AG's office!
I applaud @NewJerseyOAG's decision to not defend the county line, echoing what @NJWFP and a community of advocates have long known: the county line is unconstitutional. #AbolishtheLine
🔥🔥🔥
BREAKING: New Jersey Attorney General views county organization lines as unconstitutional, and the state won't defend it in court.
