WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) delivered the following statement on the re-election of Phil Murphy as the 56th Governor of New Jersey:

“I congratulate Governor Phil Murphy on his re-election as Governor of New Jersey. During his first term, he delivered for New Jersey’s working families in a big way while facing the greatest public health crisis of our time. Thanks to his leadership, today our schools are open, our businesses are hiring, and we have one of the highest vaccination rates in the country. I look forward to continue working with Governor Murphy to meet the challenges still facing some of our New Jersey families and move our beloved state forward.”
