Anyone who interacts with our health care system knows the vital role nurses play in ensuring we receive the care we need. On National Nurses Day I am grateful who have chosen to dedicate their lives to serving others.
On Yom HaShoah, we stand united in honoring the memory of the millions of innocent victims of the Holocaust, reaffirming our commitment to countering antisemitism, hatred, and injustice everywhere and in all its forms.
Journalists across the world risk everything to deliver essential information to all of us. On World Press Freedom day I celebrate their extraordinary work, and remain committed to preserving a free and independent press.
From increasing access to health care and broadband to creating good paying green jobs, Democrats are investing in rural America.
Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month is a chance to recognize the proud history and extraordinary contributions of the AANHPI community to New Jersey and our nation.
We must act on cannabis reform. Together with Leader Schumer and Senator Wyden we are announcing comprehensive federal reforms that will legalize cannabis and restore justice. youtube.com/watch?v=mg50jc…
I’m heartbroken that four law enforcement officers in Charlotte were tragically killed, and four more injured, in another senseless act of gun violence. My prayers are with their families and loved ones. charlotteobserver.com/news/local/cri…
The bipartisan AI Grand Challenges Act leverages prize competitions and artificial intelligence to solve hard problems in service of the public good. I'm proud to lead this bill with @SenatorRounds and @SenatorHeinrich. booker.senate.gov/news/press/boo…
We have seen historic progress in the global fight against malaria, particularly due to the US President’s Malaria Initiative, but the disease still kills too many, of which over 3/4 are children. On #WorldMalariaDay, I remain committed to the critical work of combatting malaria.
In passing the national security and foreign aid package with bipartisan majorities, Congress is sending a message: the United States stands with its allies and will help address growing humanitarian needs causing enormous suffering around the world. booker.senate.gov/news/press/boo…
This historic investment in solar energy was made possible by Democrats passing groundbreaking climate legislation. The $156 million specifically for New Jersey will increase solar adoption in low-income communities, saving money and our planet. x.com/whitehouse/sta…

To mark Earth Day’s Planet vs. Plastics theme this year I reintroduced my Protecting Communities from Plastics Act, which will tackle the plastic production crisis that is fueling climate change and perpetuating environmental injustice.
To those in New Jersey celebrating Passover, wishing you a joyous Seder filled with meaningful traditions, blessings, and love. Chag Sameach!
On Earth Day, let’s renew our commitment to cherish and protect our beautiful yet fragile planet. While we’ve made progress, the urgent need for more robust climate action is vital to the health of our planet. It’s our responsibility to safeguard this magnificent Pale Blue Dot.
The failed War on Drugs continues to be a war on people. We need to pass comprehensive cannabis reform that includes restorative justice.
In the 25 years since the mass shooting at Columbine, we as legislators have failed to keep our students and teachers safe from the gun violence epidemic this country faces. We must not stop fighting for gun safety reform until America’s classrooms are a safe haven for all.
The Oklahoma City Bombing is a terrifying example of the threat of domestic terrorism this country has faced and continues to face. We all must continue to support efforts to curb domestic terrorism and combat hatred in our society.
From asthma inhalers to cancer drug treatments, Democrats have successfully lowered costs despite intense opposition from the GOP and Big Pharma. We must build on our progress and deliver savings for Americans.
It was an honor to meet with @clarekabale and hear about the work she and @CFE_Uganda are doing to defend the rights of LGBTQIA+ Ugandans. I will continue to condemn the draconian Anti-Homosexuality Act that was passed in Uganda last year.

@SenBooker Thank you @SenBooker for spreading awareness this #WorldPolioDay! We appreciate your support!
Excellent to see @politico covering @SenBooker & @JoaquinCastrotx’s call for @USAID to do more to prioritize innovation, including by scaling up funding for the agency’s most effective programs.
.@SenBooker has introduced a slate of legislation to support the rural economy, environment, and farmers and their families.
In the face of global crises, global solutions are needed more than ever. As individuals, we can play an important role in ensuring that no one is left behind. We must all be the change. Share this thread to help spread the word! #WorldFoodDay2022

Between 2020 and 2021, child poverty fell dramatically for all children and gaps in poverty rates between racial and ethnic groups narrowed. For Black children, poverty fell from 17.2% in 2021 to 8.3% in 2020. For Latino children, it fell from 14.7% to 8.4%.
The #ChildTaxCredit expansion lifted 2.1 million children out of poverty in 2021. This included 752,000 Latino children, 650,000 white children, 600,000 Black children, and 56,000 Asian children, Census calculated. See Table 2 here: census.gov/library/storie…
The #ChildTaxCredit expansion drove a record-breaking drop in child poverty: from 9.7% in 2020 to 5.2% in 2021. Without the expansion, it would have been 8.1% in 2021 & 2.1 million more kids would have been in poverty, Census calculated. census.gov/library/storie…
The decision to create a sentencing disparity between crack & powder cocaine was a mistake that has had devastating consequences for far too many Americans. It’s time for the Senate to right this wrong and pass the EQUAL Act—eliminating this sentencing disparity once and for all.
"For decades after Congress passed the 1986 Anti-Drug Abuse Act, one ratio illustrated the unfairness of the criminal justice system: 100 to 1." Must-read from the @washingtonpost editorial board on the injustice of the powder vs. crack cocaine disparity: washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…

.@SenatorTester next time I see you, it's on!
Overdraft fees can often mean the difference between buying groceries or making rent for America’s most vulnerable families. The Senate should pass my and @SenBooker’s bill to stop giant banks from making billions off abusive overdraft practices. bloomberg.com/graphics/2022-…
Tune in as I deliver remarks on my plan to bring student loan debt relief to the millions of borrowers who need it the most. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
The Inflation Reduction Act will position America to meet my climate goals, saving families hundreds of dollars a year on energy costs. And for families that take advantage of clean energy and electric vehicle tax credits – they could see more than twice the savings.
