What are we working on?
Racial Justice
The COVID-19 pandemic exposed and exacerbated racial disparities that have long plagued our country, and we have a moral obligation to address this problem.
Gun Violence
Over the past decade, nearly 5,000 New Jersey residents have been killed by guns. This is more than a tragedy. It’s also a public health crisis.
Police-Community Relations
The New Jersey Attorney General has the unique authority to issue statewide policy directives that apply to the New Jersey’s 38,000 state, county, and local police officers and 1,000 state, county, and municipal prosecutors.
Protecting New Jersey in Court
The Attorney General protects the rights of New Jersey’s residents by standing up to corporate polluters, financial fraudsters, discriminatory employers—and when necessary, the federal government.

Another mass shooting - this time at a Walmart in Virginia.
I’m devastated for the victims’ loved ones and the community, and I’m tired of waking up saying “this time.”
We won’t rest until we put an end to the gun violence epidemic. My thoughts remain with Chesapeake today.
Feast mode: activated. 🦃
Thank you to @NewarkNJPolice, @NJSP, and community leaders for making Thanksgiving dinner a reality for many families in need. I was honored to be a part of it.
