This is National Health Center Week and Community Health Centers has events going on to celebrate, including two events today in East Orange and Irvington. The Centers do an exceptional job providing medical care to our communities and I am proud to support their efforts! https://t.co/udWWxqFcG8
I am saddened, sickened and furious to hear about the details of Jayden Walker's death. This is the clearest use of excessive force I've seen in recent history. May God Bless his family during this hour of mourning. BLACK LIVES MATTER!! https://t.co/rBcPVAtwFX https://t.co/YWuIgGjG1V
Juneteenth is today's federal holiday. I attended the renaming of Washington Park to Harriet Tubman Square. This historic event would not have been possible without the leadership of Newark's Mayor @rasjbaraka. Harriet Tubman legacy will now be remembered by future residents. https://t.co/5v1WNTnOvN
Federal judges and their families are under attack like never before. Verbal attacks, threats of violence, and even physical assaults have become more common. In my recent floor speech, I called for the protection of federal court judges. @CSPAN https://t.co/UstMGwgPVy
I was honored to welcome Transportation Sec. Pete Buttigieg to the district today to discuss diversity in federal transportation contracting at my Minority Business Participation Roundtable. We need give all American businesses a level playing field for these contracts. https://t.co/QMIQVIkrQ1

It was an honor to speak today at the NAN Convention to celebrate its 30th anniversary. I spoke about the need to protect the vote, end police brutality, eliminate disparities in health care, protect cash as a form of payment, and provide student loan relief to Americans. https://t.co/n2EHhit2QJ
Today, President Biden expanded Affordable Care Act coverage to help as many as 5 million more Americans qualify for coverage. I voted for this historic bill 12 years ago. Now, more than 14 million Americans have affordable health care. https://t.co/QjZ6ohxGFS https://t.co/vJonthRxTz
I am deeply saddened by the passing of former East Orange Mayor Robert L. Bowser. Mayor Bowser was the first elected African-American Mayor for the City of East Orange. My condolences to his wife, Marilyn, his children David, Lisa and Leslie and the residents of East Orange. https://t.co/36nLHM4x3A
Thank you to our special guests including @TammyMurphyNJ, @SheilaOliverNJ, @SenMTeresaRuiz, @AswPintorMarin, @AswTimberlake, @Amy_DeGise, @DVertreese and many more. Your support will carry us to victory.
I would like to give a heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended our Women for Payne event tonight. The love and energy in this room was inspiring, and your support reminds me why it’s so critical for us to countinue fighting for working families in Congress. https://t.co/oNuyt8NZYs
Recently, Sen. Menendez hosted an event to promote the Affordable Insulin Now Act. It would cap insulin payments at $35 per month. As a diabetic, I understand the problems with high insulin prices. We need to lower them now! https://t.co/9AWbvnA62f
Today is International Women’s Day! It’s a time to reflect on the progress women have made and acknowledge the work still to be done. So, let us celebrate the accomplishments of women everywhere and continue our work to create more equality worldwide. https://t.co/T3U9jsriqK
Congratulations to Newark!! Today, I join VP Harris, Gov. Murphy, Mayor Baraka and others to celebrate the city's lead service line removal project. I've fought for funding and introduced bills to clean up American drinking water in Congress, so I'm proud of the city's work. https://t.co/ENFD63siq4
60 million Americans have signed away their rights in forced arbitration clauses at work -- and many don’t even know it. Today, we passed legislation to #EndForcedArbitration so that survivors of sexual assault & harassment aren’t blocked from seeking justice. https://t.co/m5BvXb4CkT
Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. We remember that the Holocaust was the genocide of 6 million Jewish people and other innocent victims who lost their lives to the Nazis. We must never let such atrocities happen again. We must condemn racism and antisemitism. https://t.co/izyHjrLH50
Today, I helped pass the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act to protect voting rights and our democracy. The 2020 election had the highest turnout in 120 years, but 18 want to restrict voting. The Senate must pass this bill before millions of Americans lose the right to vote. https://t.co/QS8hZkadbL

“I was proud to participate in the swearing-in ceremony for Hillside Mayor Dahlia Vertreese and Council Members Craig Epps, Lisa Bonano, and Robert Rios. I have been a strong supporter of Mayor Vertreese and her work to improve the lives of her constituents. https://t.co/qU6lCVwYge
