And with her and Dale, New Jersey is in extraordinarily capable hands.

This job is not easy, but it is the journey of a lifetime. Because to lead our state is to love it.

Congratulations, Governor Sherrill!

This is a truly historic and joyous day for New Jersey.

Mikie has done it all. Like a true Naval aviator, she has navigated the chaos of Congress with grit and grace. She has devoted her life to serving our country.

It has been an extraordinary run.

As I leave the State House for the last time as Governor, I am proud to say we are leaving our children a state that is better than we found it. A New Jersey that is stronger, fairer, and more responsible.

As heavy snowfall continues across the state, we urge you to avoid driving if possible.

If you must drive, please do so slowly and safely.

Eight years ago today, I stood on stage and took the oath as the 56th Governor of New Jersey.

Today, I signed legislation creating new oversight and establishing new transparency requirements for charter schools.

Together, we are setting a higher standard for charter schools and giving the NJ Dept. of Education greater authority to hold them accountable to taxpayers and communities.

Today, I signed legislation modernizing the process for filling vacant U.S. House of Representatives seats — preventing delays, reducing voter confusion, and ensuring we don't have long periods without representation. www.nj.gov/governor/new...

From improving reliability and on-time performance to replacing every single outdated bus and rail car in NJ TRANSIT’s fleet by 2031, we have set in motion a renaissance for the nation’s third-largest public transit system.

As our state’s commuters will be quick to tell you: NJ TRANSIT is not yet where it needs to be. But it is also lightyears ahead of where it was.

Before I entered office, the last time New Jersey received a credit rating upgrade was in 2005.

In the past three years, we have secured NINE credit rating upgrades. By contrast, the prior administration had 11 credit rating downgrades.

Today, it gives me great pride to say: We have lived up to that promise. We made the full payment into our state’s pension system FIVE years in a row — and for the first time in a generation.

At a time when New Jersey is ascendant, there is only one thing that can stand in our way – and that is ourselves.

We cannot repeat the mistakes of the past. That is why, when I entered office in 2018, I promised to turn things around as Governor.

New Jersey is quickly becoming THE global destination for film and television production.

@netflix.com. @lionsgate.com. @paramountpics.bsky.social: some of the biggest names in the business. And they are all putting down roots in the Garden State.

We have set New Jersey on course to a cleaner, more sustainable future.

A future where we meet our responsibility to combat climate change while also creating new sources of affordable, reliable energy that lower costs in the long-term.

And in the years since then — at a time when extremist politicians have put a target on the backs of women — we have firmly established New Jersey as a safe haven for reproductive freedom.

When the Supreme Court launched an unprecedented assault on reproductive rights, we — in New Jersey — fought back.

Months before the Court issued its dreadful Dobbs decision, we took action and codified the right to abortion.
