Thank you, folks.

Thank you for supporting my campaign when we needed you most.

Between a MAGA opponent announcing his campaign against me, Donald Trump doubling down on his intention to flip New Jersey, and House Republicans announcing another massive fundraising haul to target Democrats like me and expand their extremist majority, we needed to make a bold statement about our grassroots strength.

I’m proud to say we did just that.

Take a moment to pat yourself on the back, folks, but do so knowing that we need to roll up our sleeves and get right back to work tomorrow.

The race to defend my seat, flip the House blue, and defeat Donald Trump is only going to get more intense. The attack ads will be nasty, the outside spending will be outrageous, and yes — we’ll have what it takes to withstand it if we don’t take our feet off the gas pedal.

All the while, I promise to keep fighting to make New Jersey the best place to live, work, and raise a family. I won’t let up in the fight to fund our government, protect reproductive freedom, and deliver aid to Ukraine before it’s too late.

I’ll continue to make my message clear to Extremist Republicans: It’s time to lead, follow, or get out of the way.

I’m so grateful for all you do to support my campaign. There’s nothing we can’t accomplish together!
