Great evening out with my family for dinner at Leo’s Grandevous new outdoor cafe! Thanks to Grace, Nick and all of the staff for making it a socially distant and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Due to the tireless advocacy of so many, the county line is finally gone. It’s why I submitted an amicus brief in support of the lawsuit. Now, New Jersey will get what 49 other states have: free and fair elections. A great day for democracy.

Yesterday at the demonstration for racial justice I invoked the opening of the Sikh national anthem: “Deh siva bar mohe eh-hey subh karman te kabhu na taro” This is a prayer to our Creator to give us the strength to never be afraid to do the right thing, or to do what is right

I'm proud that cities like Hoboken have been built brick by brick by Irish, Italian and Latino immigrants, among others. We should always be mindful of the fact that America is a nation of immigrants, and ensure that everyone is treated fairly and with respect, no matter their

Targeting kids? Try promoting love, inclusion and childhood literacy during family friendly readings. Clearly, acceptance and respect for diversity, which we celebrate in Hoboken aren’t comprehensible topics for you. Stay ignorant, @libsoftiktok .

Ok groomer. There’s a difference between “everyone is welcome” and “I’m gonna use your tax dollars to shove this s*xual agenda targeting kids down your throat” Stay creepy, @RaviBhalla .

Still undecided? Here are 4 differences: I oppose the $10.7B Turnpike widening. Menendez supports it. I oppose 30% NJ Transit fare hikes. Menendez is silent. Rob’s campaign is funded by corporate PAC💰. I take none. I opposed the undemocratic county line. Rob supported it.

Horrific news. Lt. Sandeep Dhaliwal, the first ever Sikh officer to wear a turban in Texas was shot and killed in the line of duty today. A good man devoted to serving others. Please offer your love and prayers for his family.
