Seeing this news is absolutely heartbreaking. No parent or family should have to experience this kind of loss, and no child should fear or face this kind of violence. As a father, this is gut-wrenching.

We must make major reforms to address corruption at all levels of government. It won’t be easy but it is necessary.

I've heard it from people across New Jersey - between this war and higher prices, they feel like they're drowning.
