Climate change isn't just a shore problem in New Jersey—it hits our cities hard too, disproportionately harming communities who have historically been overlooked and marginalized. Together with New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, we're changing that.

Join us in recognizing our Division of Violence Intervention and Victim Assistance (VIVA) during #NCVRW .

VIVA's trauma-informed approach amplifies the voices of survivors, paving the way for healing and justice. Learn more about their impactful work: njoag.gov/viva

Adeel Mangi deserves to be the nation’s first Muslim federal appellate judge. But he faces an onslaught of baseless and dangerous claims that he is antisemitic and anti-law enforcement. I call on Senators to swiftly confirm him to the Third Circuit. bit.ly/4dm0MBx

Happy #EarthDay ! From holding polluters accountable to safeguarding our coastlines, every action we take is aimed at protecting our communities and natural resources. We won't back down in the fight for a cleaner, healthier future for all New Jerseyans.

We’re thinking of Officer Luis M. Huesca, who was fatally shot this morning, just two days shy of his 31st birthday. Violence against those sworn to protect us is especially egregious, and we’re praying for his loved ones, Chicago PD, and all affected by this tragedy.

How would you help crime survivors? That's the question we're asking during #NCVRW2024 . Whether offering support, sharing resources, or raising awareness, every action counts. Join us in ensuring that survivors have access to options, services, and hope.

No matter what you've heard, here's a fact: you CAN display signs prohibiting guns in and around your establishment. Declare your property a 'gun-free zone' by downloading a flyer or requesting a free decal at njoag.gov/gunfreezone

In New Jersey, we know that strong gun laws save lives. All gun sellers should do background checks, whether they operate in brick-and-mortar stores or at gun shows. Closing the gun show loophole is nonnegotiable for public safety, and we applaud President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for taking action.
