Rep. Mikie Sherrill

I’m furious, because right now, the Trump Administration is being absolutely reckless with our national security. There must be an investigation — and there must be accountability. The White House needs to clean house over this breach of military plans.

I’m leading a bipartisan group of NJ lawmakers urging Secretary Hegseth to halt the Army’s shortsighted proposal that would would shift nearly $1 billion in funding and about 1,000 jobs away from Picatinny Arsenal, threatening our national security. We will not stand by while…

These tariffs will hit local coffee shops across the country, including one of my favorites Java Love right here in NJ-11. This is another reckless policy decision from the Trump Administration that raises prices for consumers and threatens small businesses.…

The Essex-Hudson Greenway will benefit residents across the state, linking our communities and business and providing opportunity for outdoor recreation. I worked closely with state and local officials to secure federal funding from the American Rescue Plan to make this path a…

For too long, women have been underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) positions in our Armed Forces. This week, I introduced a NDAA amendment to break down barriers and expand opportunities for women in STEM.

Our service members put their lives on the line for our country, yet too often when they return to civilian life, they struggle to find career opportunities. I introduced an amendment to expand apprenticeship programs for these service members to help them find a path for their…

I’m grateful for my friend and colleague @RepHoulahan, who has championed this issue from day one. We will keep fighting to make sure our service women and military families get the care they need, no matter where they’re stationed.

Our country is facing a maternal mortality crisis, and it hits women of color especially hard. The CDC has found that 4 out of 5 pregnancy-related deaths are preventable and hypertensive disorders are a common pregnancy complication. That’s why I introduced an amendment to…

We ask our servicewomen to put their lives on the line to serve our country. They should NEVER have to risk their lives giving birth. That's why I introduced an amendment to restore full reproductive freedom for every member of the armed forces no matter where they are…

Secretary Hegseth froze aid to Ukraine TWICE without Trump’s approval, delaying vital support for Ukranian troops fighting Vladimir Putin's invasion. His mismanagement is dangerous and disgraceful. Ukraine can’t afford more deadly pauses.

A couple of months ago, I asked Pete Hegseth if he had fired General CQ Brown because he is Black, and fired Admiral Lisa Franchetti because she is a woman. He didn't dispute it. Today, I fought to pass an amendment that would require the Secretary to submit an explanation to…

At @Picatinny_NJ, engineers, scientists, and support staff are building the future of our national defense Cutting civil service jobs at Picatinny Arsenal is not just an attack on New Jersey workers, it’s an attack on our national security.

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times. If Secretary Hegseth believed a word he said about turning our military into a meritocracy, he would have sent in his resignation months ago.

I’m heading to our House Armed Services Committee hearing to fight for New Jersey. Here’s what I’ll be up to today.

I'm deeply saddened to hear about the lives lost in last night's flash floods, and I am praying for the families impacted. Thank you to all of the first responders who went into harm's way last night and are continuing to work to keep our communities safe.

⚠️🌧️ FLASH FLOOD SAFETY 🌧️⚠️ ☑️Turn Around, Don’t Drown! 🚫🚗💦 ☑️Stay informed & move to higher ground. ☑️Secure your home & have an emergency kit ready. Stay alert, stay safe!

🚨 We may see severe thunderstorms and flash floods across New Jersey tonight. As always, please travel with caution and never drive through flooded roads.

Senator Wynona Lipman was a relentless fighter for NJ families, and the Wynona Lipman Family Courthouse will carry on that legacy by continuing the work Wynona dedicated her life to. Thank you to @Joe_D_EssexExec, @ECCommissioners, and everyone in Essex County who made this…

I'm glad Trump has reversed course, but it shouldn’t take a tragic natural disaster for this Administration to realize that eliminating FEMA is reckless and stupid. We need competent leadership, especially during times of crisis. washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/…
