RWJBarnabas and the Murphy administration rushed a public hearing on their plan to close Monmouth Medical Center hospital in Long Branch without the legally required notice. They’ve now POSTPONED that hearing.

NJ Republicans are seeing the writing on the wall—we’re RUNNING OUT OF TIME to prevent millions of Americans from becoming uninsured.

Glad to see @StateDept finally recognizing Putin for what he is: a bad faith negotiator and the aggressor. He deserves nothing but the strongest condemnation and punishment from the United States for his war of aggression on Ukraine.

It's DAY 22 of the REPUBLICAN RETREAT.
House Republicans STILL refuse to meet and STILL refuse to make your health care more affordable, even though people are getting letters about their premiums soaring and face record high costs while shopping for insurance.

The Republican Shutdown is leaving THOUSANDS of public servants tirelessly working for the American people without a pay check. It's outrageous, and it's all because Republicans would rather strip health care from millions of working people than fund the government.

Hurricane Erin wiped out half the sand in Monmouth Beach and left Shore towns scrambling to rebuild ramps and dunes before Labor Day. This is why the gutting of Army Corps beach funding by Republicans is so dangerous—slashing it from $200 Million to just $60 Million (a 70% (cont in image...)

Trump is only letting UCLA restart lifesaving research if they pony up $1 billion for the administration. It's the latest episode in this administration's attempts to extort our nation's universities for political gain. Not only is it highway robbery from students and faculty, (cont in image...)

In exchange for making sure @fcc approved the Skydance/Paramount merger, Trump was offered up to $20 million in free advertising and a host of dangerous editorial concessions — including a promise to “root out” perceived bias.

Once again, President Trump is terrorizing our communities and raiding places of work. Trump keeps suggesting that he is only arresting or deporting hardened criminals and gangsters. Yesterday’s raid in Edison is more proof his administration will stretch the law without a (cont in image...)

Remember when Republicans claimed to be against Big Government? Well, Trump wants a standing army of National Guard troops on one-hour notice to drop into our communities and the party of federalism seems awfully quiet about a full-scale military takeover of our streets. (cont in image...)

Trump can’t just rewrite the law to keep his political pick in power. Congress set a 120-day limit on interim U.S. Attorneys for a reason — to stop exactly this kind of end-run around the Senate and the courts. I joined a bipartisan brief to defend that law and the separation of (cont in reply...)
