Happy New Jersey Day!

I celebrate the Garden State every day, but especially on July 27th — the anniversary of New Jersey becoming the third state to join the union.

New Jersey is unlike any other state in the nation. We’ve got the best food, the best beaches, the best cities, and most importantly, the best people!

Whether you call it a Taylor ham or pork roll; whether you live in North, South, or Central Jersey (yes, it exists!); whether you listen to Springsteen and Bon Jovi, SZA and Halsey, or Frank Sinatra and Frankie Valli — we can all agree on one thing: There’s no better place in the world to call home than New Jersey.

So cheers to the Garden State, and Happy New Jersey Day!
