Proudly serving the people of New Jersey in the U.S. Senate.
Trump’s petty and pathetic decision to illegally withhold funding for Gateway is undermining union jobs, the American economy, and the safety and economic wellbeing of the hundreds of thousands of New Jerseyans that rely on this critical infrastructure every day.

Trump is pushing an agenda of energy scarcity.

Tighter supply, higher prices, and more pain for working families.

Trump illegally withholding funds for the Gateway Tunnel project will put 1,000 workers out of jobs and stop construction on the most important infrastructure project in the country.

Later today there is an antitrust hearing on the proposed Netflix and Warner Bros. merger.

We need answers on how this will affect workers, artists, and not add to consumers already facing rising costs.

I voted against funding a lawless ICE and DHS. These agencies are out of control and putting Americans’ lives at risk.

The administration is refusing to hold officers who abuse people accountable and refusing to submit to congressional oversight.

I’m deeply disturbed by the assault on Rep. Ilhan Omar last night as she met with constituents. I’m in awe of her determination in the face of adversity, and grateful the incident was not worse.

There is no place for political violence or intimidation in America.

Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

We honor the memories of the 6 million Jewish people, and millions more, viciously murdered at the hands of the Nazi regime.

We reaffirm our pledge to rooting out antisemitism and hate in all its forms, and vow to be the light in times of darkness.

New Jersey–we are anticipating a major winter storm this weekend.

Please act now to be prepared, plan to stay off the roads during and immediately after the storm, and closely follow local & state warnings.

Today I visited Delaney Hall to provide some measure of oversight and accountability to an out of control DHS.

I announced legislation that ends private detention centers and protects immigrants. I will not vote for another dollar for a reckless ICE & DHS.

With an administration intent on sowing fear and distrust, we must stand tall and sure in our convictions.
Cory Booker: Roxbury’s fight is our fight. No new ICE detention centers in N.J.
'This kind of detention center is a moral stain and an insult to the immigrants who call New Jersey home.'

Honored to witness the swearing in of Governor Mike Sherrill this morning. I know that she is going to be an incredible partner fighting for the people of New Jersey.

As Ugandans head to the polls tomorrow, it is deeply concerning that the Museveni government has imposed an internet blackout, restricted mobile access, and detained opposition supporters and journalists in the lead up to the election.

Energy bills are rising in New Jersey and across the country thanks to President Trump's petty political culture war against clean, reliable, affordable energy that creates good-paying jobs.

Governor Codey was a dedicated, selfless public servant that committed his life to the people of New Jersey. He lived with compassion and strength, striving every day to improve the lives of New Jerseyans. My heart is with his family today, may we all carry forward his memory.

As Gabby Giffords met with her constituents 15 years ago, a gunman targeted her and her fellow Arizonans. 8 people lost their lives in this political attack, but Gabby survived.

Five Republicans joined with Senate Democrats today to take a step forward in checking President Trump's unlawful actions in Venezuela - but we need everyone to stand up and use your voice to demand the Senate assert our Constitutional authority over the use of military force.

As we mark one year from the start of the fires that devastated communities across Los Angeles. My heart is with them–especially Pacific Palisades and Altadena–as they mark one year since their loss and continue their recovery.

The Constitution is clear:
Congress has the power and responsibility to authorize the use of military force and declare war. Congress has a duty of oversight. Congress must serve as a check, not a rubber stamp to the President.

On these counts, Congress has failed.

We are in a housing crisis and Donald Trump has no answers.

Energy costs are higher than ever. We must act to bring them down.
December 30, 2025 at 1:15 AM
Trump and Vance promised to lower costs, especially food costs. They failed.

We must do better for the American people.
