Proudly Representing New Jersey’s 10th Congressional District
On the House floor, I paid tribute to the life and legacy of dedicated NJ-10 educator, Mr. Terry Woolard.

His dedication wasn’t just to do his job—but to create a lasting impact on his  students beyond the classroom.

From 1964 to 2026, we’re still asking the same question: Is this America? 

This Black History Month, we recognize how Black women have always stood in the gap, bridging the distance between the nation we are promised and the reality we still face today.

I was proud to have NJ’s very own franchise small business owner, Rico Macaraeg, testify on how the House Small Business Committee can support leaders like him.

And I’m excited to provide resources for our small business leaders with our upcoming small business webinar. Register now!

So grateful to spend time at Yolanda Alonzo’s L.O.V.E. Inc. in Newark—meeting students and founder Rukmini, to learn more about the incredible work they do to support survivors of domestic violence and uplift the NJ-10 community.

Donald Trump is ripping up the Gateway project, which would be good for NJ business, NJ commuters, and great for our state—but he doesn’t care about making your life better, he cares about himself. 

I joined @booker.senate.gov to demand better. Let’s get the Gateway project back on track.

The president doesn’t think Black and brown people are human. It’s in posts and it’s in his policies. We’re numb to this from him, but we won’t stop calling it what it is: racist and disgusting.
A video shared on President Trump’s Truth Social account depicts the Obamas as apes.

Small Businesses are the backbone of NJ-10’s economic opportunity—and they deserve all the tools to thrive.

I believe investing in young leaders is how we secure our community’s future. 

Through my Congressional Youth Advisory Council, students grow as leaders, learn how government works, and share their voices on the issues that matter at home.

When workplace protections are stripped away, and safety is ignored, women pay the price.

Alongside @ilhanmn.bsky.social and @demwomencaucus.bsky.social, shining light on Trump’s attack on women and fighting back and to keep women safe at work, in our neighborhoods, and in our communities.

Follow the money.

There are people who have volunteered to go back to their country, but are still waiting in ICE detention centers…

Why? Because private prisons make money off of locking people in cages.
February 4, 2026 at 7:29 PM
We should definitely abolish ICE.

Today, on her heavenly birthday, we celebrate the courage of civil rights trailblazer Rosa Parks.

By sitting down on a Montgomery bus, she stood up for freedom and inspired changemakers everywhere.

On the House floor, I congratulated Lieutenant John Swandrak on 30 years of service to the Cranford community and for a legacy of service, fairness, and true community partnership for all of New Jersey to follow.

Happy retirement, Lieutenant Swandrak!

ICE doesn’t want you to know what they are doing in the dark. The admin wants to rip up legislative oversight. That’s exactly why we have to keep showing up to do it. 

I spoke with @slate.com about standing up to ICE and the admin trying to send me to prison for doing my job.

Good health shouldn’t be a privilege. It should be accessible.  

Join us on Facebook Live for an event that centers NJ-10. We’ll share health info, prevention tools, and real tips for living longer and healthier lives. See you tomorrow night!

Be safe. Know your rights. Stand up for dignity.

Team LaMonica is showing up for you! This month we have mobile office hours across the district.

We’re ready to help with casework, assist in navigating federal agencies, and more. Stop by!

You cannot conduct legislative oversight of an ICE facility from behind a desk.

Fighting this case allows me to fulfill my congressional duty—holding this administration accountable.

This Black History Month, let us celebrate the heroes who have paved the way for us and recommit ourselves to the work still ahead of us.

This isn’t just about one Black girl from Newark, this is about making sure we can hold Trump accountable.

And every day we’re seeing more attacks from this admin on officials who are doing their jobs.

I was grateful for the opportunity to honor the legacy of MLK and pour into student scholarship recipients. 

I urged our young people to ask, “where do we go from here?” and am asking young people to write under that question in our Black History Month Essay Contest. Applications open now!
