The Murphy administration is telling NJ State Police to ignore federal deportation orders for criminal illegal aliens in our communities. They would rather protect violent criminals than their own citizens. New Jersey deserves better than this. shorenewsnetwork.com/2025/04/08/phi…

On top of this, the mayor of Newark is fighting to stop ICE from reopening detention beds for criminal illegal aliens. At every level, Democrat leadership is betraying the American people by putting their safety last.

I’m deeply relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe after yesterday’s arson attack. This kind of hate and violence has no place in our country—ever. Grateful to law enforcement and first responders for their quick response in preventing an even greater tragedy.

The NJ Turnpike Authority officially awarded the E-ZPass contract to TransCore, a company with potential ties to the CCP. Despite clear national security concerns, they chose to push forward instead of thoroughly investigating . It is truly unacceptable. northjersey.com/story/news/tra…

Big offshore wind victory today. Empire Wind off the coast of NJ and NY is going to be ordered to HALT all construction activities. I am proud to have worked with President Trump’s cabinet to expose the Biden administration’s faulty permitting process. freebeacon.com/energy/trump-a…

I’m saddened to hear of the passing of the Pope this morning. He lived his life in service to others and to his faith. May he rest in peace.

In just 100 days, President Trump did what Biden wouldn’t in four years: ✅ Laken Riley Act: signed ✅ Remain in Mexico: reinstated ✅ CBP One App: shut down ✅ Catch and Release: ended ✅ Criminal illegals: deported Biden opened the floodgates and Trump slammed them shut.

Americans are getting screwed by sky-high drug prices while other countries pay a fraction of the cost. Meanwhile, Big Pharma and PBMs are raking in billions. It is time for real reform to lower prices and put consumers first. forbes.com/sites/joshuaco…

I rarely agree with anything the NJBPU does, but this is something I can get behind. Expanding nuclear power in NJ is a win-win: it's clean, reliable, and could finally bring down our sky-high electric bills. Now it’s time to make it happen. utilitydive.com/news/new-jerse…

Congratulations to Cardinal Robert Prevost of Chicago on being elected the first American Pope. I am praying for Pope Leo XIV as he takes on the incredible responsibility of leading 1.4 billion Catholics around the world.

All it took was real leadership to get the job done. Edan Alexander is finally coming home, thanks to President Trump. No American left behind. 🇺🇸

The art of the deal is alive and well. This is a big step toward easing trade tensions and creating a fairer playing field for American businesses.

Good news. The text of my bill, the No Child Tax Credit for Illegals Act, is now part of the reconciliation package. We are tightening up our tax system to make sure taxpayer dollars are going to American families, not illegal immigrants.
