Government works best when the public has a voice in the decisions being made. If elected officials are making decisions that affect local communities, residents deserve the opportunity to provide input before those decisions are made.

The unethical marketing tactics used by companies to promote a dangerous substance like tianeptine is giving a false sense of security to those looking for solutions to their ailments. With this bill, we could remove these products from our retail shelves. senatenj.com/CivicAlerts.asp…

Thrilled to see the creative works of 19 Bridgewater-Raritan Regional students are on the NJ State Christmas Tree at the White House! 🎄 Proud to have nominated JFK Primary School to represent our state in this year’s National Christmas Tree program. ei.brrsd.org/o/eis/article/2…

A busy week in Trenton. ✅ NJ Senate Republicans advanced legislation through committee to lower property taxes, support disabled-veteran business owners, assist veterans transitioning to civilian life, and strengthen economic and community development in Atlantic City. 🏛️

💰 A 600 page budget with tax hikes was released just moments before a vote on Friday night— more of the same from Democrats. Under one-party rule, we've seen backroom negotiations and spending that has ballooned by $24 billion under the Murphy Admin. Enough is enough. 💸

💰 Another huge tax-and-spend burden is about to hit hardworking New Jerseyans. Hours before the vote at 8PM on a Friday night... we still haven’t seen the budget. Under one-party rule, taxpayers are ignored, transparency is tossed aside, and affordability takes a backseat. 💸

💰 We're once again calling on Trenton Democrats to act on our budget proposals to deliver tax relief and funding for critical services. “We stand ready and willing to work with you to fix the Gov’s deeply flawed budget and give New Jerseyans the affordability they deserve."

💰 Formal budget talks start today—but we still haven’t seen the budget we’re expected to vote on! We’re pushing back against Trenton Democrats’ proposed $1 billion tax hike—fighting for NJ taxpayers who are overtaxed and tired of wasteful spending. We need affordability now.

💰 Budget hearings are over, but Gov. Murphy’s plan still includes $1 BILLION in new taxes! Sens. O'Scanlon, Testa, Steinhardt & Amato stood up for taxpayers & pushed back against the administration's reckless spending. The fight isn't over. Stay tuned for the budget process.

Trenton Democrats just canceled a federally funded NJ Transit energy project that could have lowered electric bills for families across New Jersey. Now, thanks to their failed policies, we’re all paying the price—literally. Higher bills, fewer solutions. ⚡ @SenDSteinhardt

.@SenatorTesta (R-1), who represents Millville, and @SenDSteinhardt (R-23) welcomed 7th graders from Lakeside Middle School’s Gifted and Talented program to the State House. 📚 The students showed great enthusiasm for learning about the legislative process—the future is bright!
