Jason has spent his entire adult life in service of our nation. In the State Department, working both at home and abroad, he has led the charge in keeping us safe from terrorism, fighting corruption and the illegal drug trade overseas, and tirelessly advocating for the sanctity of democracy. In a dangerous world, with Russia’s illegal war in Ukraine raging on and China a growing threat in the Pacific, his voice on national security is needed now more than ever. Jason is committed to public safety as well – he’ll work to make America safer by getting weapons of war like AR-15’s off our streets. And after a career of standing up to anti-democratic forces around the world, he’ll do the same with MAGA extremists in Congress.

Growing up, Jason worked long days picking peaches and strawberries on a farm in Harmony Township. He understands what it means to put in a hard day’s work and knows that economic security is just as important as national security. In Congress, he’ll show respect for our hard-earned money by working to lower costs for things like gas, groceries, and prescription drugs.

New Jersey is one of the highest-taxed states in the nation, and Washington can no longer ignore the problem. Jason won’t – he’ll work to lower taxes on middle-class New Jersey families and get us much-needed property tax relief by working with both parties to reinstate the SALT deduction.

Jason has served under both Republican and Democratic Presidents. He has seen throughout his career that you get more done when you work as part of a team to put your head down and get to work. He isn’t running for Congress to hurl insults and start pointless fights. He’ll do what he’s always done: focus on the issues at hand and deliver strategic and pragmatic solutions.

Jason will not sit idly by while a generation of women grow up with less rights than their mothers and grandmothers. He will stop Republicans from passing a national abortion ban that would overrule New Jersey’s local protections, making sure New Jerseyans have their rights.
