The greatest president of my lifetime just put the country and the party ahead of himself and for that we should all be eternally grateful. Thank you, Joe.

Earlier this evening the @hobokendems voted to endorse @AndyKimNJ and @RaviBhalla for Senate and Congress, respectively. I am so proud! I also announced earlier this evening that I was resigning my seat on the County Committee. This decision was not easy. My statement.

ADL is disturbed by the invocation of antisemitic tropes during the open portion of the Hoboken City Council meeting last night. We applaud the Mayor and Council President for clearly and unequivocally rejecting these remarks and making clear that antisemitism and all forms of
Antisemitism has no place in Hoboken and we vehemently denounce any kind of hate speech, bias or discrimination in our open and welcoming community. We ask all residents to join us in rejecting it, wherever it exists. Comments like those made at the council meeting last night

What a weekend! Can’t wait to see so many of my friends and neighbors at @hobokenlibrary’s programs this weekend. ❤️🌈📚 At a time when so many of our LGBTQ+ friends are under attack, I am proud that our tiny city continues to be a place of acceptance and love. #Hoboken
In celebration of Pride Month, Hoboken Public Library and the City of Hoboken invite you to Read Out Loud and Proud! Join us in Church Square Park on Saturday, June 17 as we read from books that have been "banned" across the country. All are welcome! – https://t.co/F2tsvyXnax.

The @hobokenlibrary is a linchpin of the @CityofHoboken community. The hateful and homophobic harassment they are receiving must stop. Grateful for the library’s staff and volunteers who always work to foster an inclusive environment for the LGBTQ+ community.
LibsofTikTok shared this @hobokenlibrary post and now tons of hateful comments from across the country are pouring in. @CityofHoboken has always done several events to commemorate Pride Month, so I'm wondering what's different this time - it's not even a drag show.

Perfect start to #MothersDay Weekend - marching with @MomsDemand to demand a federal assault weapons ban. Thank you to @HobokenEmily, @amyfaucher, and Kim Quintero for organizing and leading. And to #GunSense Champion @RajMukherji for always showing up for us, and our kids.

I was proud to speak today at the @CityofHoboken’s flag raising for #YomHaazmaut! Israel is my family’s home. Since moving there, my mom & brother have found community, family, & love. Each & every day they fight to embody the dream of a Jewish & Democratic state. Happy 75🇮🇱!
Enjoyed a beautiful morning for an Israeli 🇮🇱 flag raising ceremony at City Hall to commemorate Yom Ha-Atzma'ut, on Israel's 75th anniversary of its independence in 1948.

Yesterday, I handed in my petition to run for another term for Hoboken Democratic Committee. I couldn’t be more clear about my why. Our children deserve better. Our teachers deserve better. Our police deserve better. Our country deserves better.

Neo-Nazi groups are reportedly organizing a national “Day of Hate” against Jews on Saturday. We will not be intimidated. We are resilient. We are strong. We are #JewishandProud.

Today is #MaternalHealthAwarenessDay & a reminder of how important it is to provide quality healthcare to all women. For us, we are grateful to the staff at @sjh_nj, especially Dr. Principe who cared for @rachelhodes during her 2+ month stay in the hospital until Asher was born.

Great to meet with @CityofHoboken Mayor @RaviBhalla in DC before his speech to @completestreets. Terrific to talk about climate resiliency, infrastructure + other needs for Hoboken! I look forward to being a partner to Hoboken + to our office serving the needs of its residents.

My administration has been in touch with local law enforcement and @HobokenPD has increased police presence at both @hoboken_shul & Chabad of Hoboken. We will continue to monitor the situation and take all necessary steps to keep our houses of worship safe.
The FBI has received credible information of a broad threat to synagogues in NJ. We ask at this time that you take all security precautions to protect your community and facility. We will share more information as soon as we can. Stay alert. In case of emergency call police.

In a short period, Ye's made himself the most well-known, widely heard, brazen antisemite on the planet. Where is the outrage? This will have real world consequences for the Jewish people.
