My administration is fully committed to ensuring that elections in New Jersey remain free and fair, and we treat the integrity of the State’s elections as a matter of the utmost seriousness...This work remains my focus. Washington Republicans on the other hand, seem much more concerned with using the issue for political gain than they are on protecting our elections. Several signatories to your July 24th letter to me have supported President Trump in his efforts to undermine our election system and defund election security. Seven of you attempted to overturn the 2020 elections and voted to challenge the electoral votes of states. And notably, one of the signatories to your letter employed an operative convicted of voter fraud, bribery, and blackmail. Read my full response to the House Republicans’ letter here:

Our Watershed & Land Management team celebrated a milestone yesterday with Acting Commissioner Potosnak, Deputy Commissioner Seebode and Assistant Commissioner Jennifer Moriarty. Through strategic reallocation, staff training, and an all-hands "blitz" approach, they addressed a backlog of Letters of Interpretation (LOIs) which document wetlands on properties so owners can plan construction and get permits faster. ✅ 99% of complete LOI applications pending 18+ months: COMPLETED ✅ 95% of complete LOI applications pending 12-18 months: COMPLETED ✅ Overall LOI backlog reduced 72% since the start of the Administration (Remaining applications are awaiting additional information from applicants) Proud of our DEP team for making government more efficient while maintaining our high standards for wetland protection. #DEPdelivers# #OperationFAST# #MoreAffordableNJ# #WetlandProtection#

No one should fear intimidation or violence for seeking healthcare, and no healthcare professional should fear punishment from another state for providing care that is legal in New Jersey. With the enhancement of this shield bill, we are making clear that New Jersey will protect patients, providers, and the fundamental freedom to make personal healthcare decisions.

Severe weather is moving across New Jersey, with flash flood warnings in effect for some areas. Conditions can change quickly, so please monitor your local forecast and be prepared. Head indoors if a storm hits and never drive through flooded waters.

Glad to see these sailors are heading home to their families after more than 240 straight days at sea. It's long overdue.

Now, it's time for Trump to end this senseless war.

I will take on whoever tries to mess with New Jerseyans’ healthcare – and follow the fight wherever it takes us – from the clinic to the courtroom. With the signing of this enhanced shield law, we are further protecting reproductive and gender affirming care. Because if Republicans in Washington won’t, New Jersey will.

We are anticipating severe thunderstorms and heavy rainfall across New Jersey this evening which may bring damaging winds and flash flooding. Please monitor your local forecasts and pay attention to emergency alerts.

Sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have spent more than 240 straight days at sea. They have not been in port once in all of 2026. There are reports of food shortages, broken toilets and showers, unsanitary conditions, severe exhaustion, and mental health issues, including sailors attempting to jump overboard. And Republicans in Washington aren’t doing nearly enough to fix it. I served nearly ten years in the Navy and almost seven on the House Armed Services Committee. Here’s what New Jerseyans need to know.

Last week I learned that a serious software error in New Jersey’s Motor Vehicle System led to the registration of roughly 6,600 people who indicated that they were not U.S. citizens between June 2023 and June 2024, almost three years prior to my taking office. These individuals answered "no" when asked on a keypad whether they were a U.S. citizen when applying for drivers' licenses and identification cards, but through no fault of their own, the system registered them anyway. This happened under the previous administration and, upon learning this information, I immediately ordered my chief counsel to launch an investigation to get to the bottom of what occurred. I also ordered the removal of any residents from our voter rolls who were erroneously added between June 2023 and June 2024. The new MVC Administrator that I appointed has begun the process of replacing the vendor responsible for administering the system. Our preliminary analysis shows fewer than 400 individuals who were newly registered for the first time because of the error voted. They were registered as Democrats, Republicans and Unaffiliated voters and were scattered across the state. I want to underscore how seriously I take this matter. As a military veteran who swore an oath to defend our Constitution, and as a former federal prosecutor, I believe the integrity of our elections is fundamental to our democracy. I am appalled by the reckless failures that allowed this to happen and the lack of transparency shown by those in charge at the time. This failure didn’t occur under my watch, but accountability starts now. I am taking action to prevent anything like it from occurring in the future and make sure those responsible are held accountable. As the Trump Administration tries to weaponize elections for political gain, I am ensuring we protect our elections. Let me be clear: Donald Trump has zero credibility on the issue of election integrity. For more than ten years, he has worked to undermine Americans' faith in our elections by spreading lies about legitimate election results, attempting to overturn a free and fair election, encouraging an attack on our Capitol when he couldn't accept the will of the voters, and defunding election security at the federal level. The difference is simple: when we find a problem, we don't hide it, deny it, or invent conspiracies. We investigate it, we fix it, and we tell the public. That's what accountability and good governance look like, and that's exactly what my administration is doing. New Jerseyans should have confidence that every eligible citizen can vote, every lawful vote will be counted, and every reasonable step will be taken to protect the integrity of our elections. That's my responsibility, and it's one I will never stop fighting to uphold.
