Your input is very important to me

  Folks, It’s been nearly two years since the COVID-19 pandemic first broke out in the United States. There’s no question that we’ve faced unprecedented challenges and struggles as a country over the past two years. But as we approach the two-year mark, we need to keep our country mov…

Join me in welcoming Ben Ray back to the Senate

  Hi there, By now you may have heard the news that my colleague and good friend Ben Ray Luján suffered from a stroke recently and has been recovering in the hospital. The good news is that after making significant progress and being discharged to a rehabilitation program, Ben Ray ret…

Fwd: President Biden just announced

President Biden just announced

  Friend, We have a Supreme Court nominee. The White House has announced President Biden’s nomination of DC Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. Following President Biden’s nomination, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson enters the pantheon of Black women who through their st…

Ukraine

  Friend, Many of us are watching the Russian invasion of Ukraine in horror this week. I feel that too, as I was in Ukraine in 2017, and I will never forget my visit to the city of Dnipro. You can watch my memories from the trip. I met incredible and brave people, from military leader…

You need to see these NRSC fundraising numbers

  Folks, After raising more than $100 million last year, the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) had a record-breaking January by raising more funds than any other January total for itself, ever. The NRSC also out-raised the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC).…

Polls show Michael Bennet is down and the Senate is on the line

  Friend, a recent poll shows my colleague Michael Bennet is losing his race by just one point against a Republican opponent. We knew holding our Senate majority wouldn’t be easy. Last year, the National GOP and a Mitch McConnell-aligned super PAC raised a combined $200 million to fli…

I’m for canceling student debt — here’s why:

  $1.75 trillion, folks. That’s the collective amount of student loan debt owed in the U.S., and it’s currently growing six times faster than our economy. One-in-eight Americans have student loan debt — that's about 45 million people. The cost of a college education has skyrocketed, a…

A few words about love

  Friend, When I feel my optimism in our work starting to dwindle I hold onto love. Because love is what led me to become a public servant. It showed me how to best serve my community as Mayor of Newark, and then my state and our country as U.S. Senator. Love is what keeps me grounded…

No Black woman has ever served on the Supreme Court

  Folks, It is past time for a Black woman to be nominated to the highest court in the land. Out of the 115 Supreme Court justices to serve our country, all but seven of them have been white men. With the Court overseeing landmark cases on reproductive rights, healthcare, workers’ rig…

New House districts for the next decade

  Redistricting for the November midterms is underway at a breakneck pace. Across the country, state legislatures, independent redistricting commissions, and the courts are radically reshaping congressional districts for the next decade as Democrats’ slim House majority hangs in the b…

Every child deserves the opportunity to succeed.

  Folks, We cannot wait any longer. Congress needs to reinstate the expanded Child Tax Credit so we can erase child poverty, end child hunger, and give a tax break to families with children — period. If you’re with me, add your name to my petition urging my Senate colleagues to pass l…

Tom Malinowski is facing his toughest race yet

  Team — let me tell you about my friend, colleague, and fellow New Jerseyan Tom Malinowski. In 2018, Tom defied the odds and flipped New Jersey’s 7th District – beating a 10-year Republican incumbent. In 2020, he won re-election against another political legacy, Kean Jr., by the clos…

The first deadline of the year is tonight

  Friend, I’m sure you’re getting ready to log off for the day so I’ll keep this brief: Our first end-of-month fundraising deadline is hours away. If we want to protect voting rights, address the climate crisis, and make the Child Tax Credit expansion permanent, then we need to defend…

A quick campaign update

24 hours away

  Folks, We’re 24 hours away from our first end-of-month deadline of 2022 and it’s critically important that we hit our goal. Cory set an ambitious fundraising goal to ensure we’re prepared to help Democratic candidates win their races in November. Senate Republicans raised $104.8 mil…

The Supreme Court

  Friend — we have spent years watching Mitch McConnell pack the Supreme Court with right-wing justices. And his ultraconservative supermajority poses a clear threat to voting rights, civil rights, women’s reproductive freedoms and more. With decades of precedent like Roe v. Wade on a…

$18.33

  $18.33, folks. That’s the average contribution to our campaign this month. And it’s proof of how we’re going to defend our Senate majority this fall — one $5, $10, or $18.33 donation at a time. If you can, please add yours today. That’s how we fund this campaign. Not with $100,000 c…

Here’s why I love New Jersey

  Friend, I love New Jersey. I’m so lucky to call this great state home, and it is the greatest privilege and honor to serve as New Jersey’s Senator. When I was finishing law school, I knew I wanted to move back to New Jersey to serve others. I eventually moved to Newark, where I foug…

Friend, will you become a monthly recurring donor to our campaign?
