Mikie Sherrill

Small businesses are the lifeblood of main streets across the state. But they’re hurting from red tape and Trump’s tariffs.

I was glad to be in Pitman today at Endgrain Coffee and Words Matter Bookstore to discuss my plans to make starting and building a business easier and cheaper.

I’m going to be a governor for all of New Jersey.

Like I told 6ABC, I am going to serve South Jersey, from investing in economic development to improving transportation across the region.

Opportunity is everything. That’s the story of my family and so many families across New Jersey who were given a shot to get ahead. And that’s what I’m fighting for as your next governor.

My heart is with the families and victims of the shooting that took place in Newark’s South Ward this weekend.

My team and I are continuing to monitor the situation closely, and we mourn this devastating loss of life with the City of Newark.

The Trump economy is already incredibly harmful to working New Jerseyans.

My north star is opportunity: good schools, good jobs, and a chance for our kids to do better than we're doing.

Forget polls — I’m a mom of teenage boys, so when I saw teenagers at our rallies going crazy in the audience, I knew things were going well.

We need leadership that takes on the crisis and meets the moment.

We’ve got a lot to do to drive down costs and build opportunity for New Jerseyans and I’m glad to have Speaker Craig Coughlin as a partner in that work. It was great to meet with him yesterday to discuss how we can best serve New Jerseyans across the state.

From flooding to workforce development, when I worked to deliver for Morris County in Congress I knew I could count on Senate Minority Leader Anthony Bucco as a partner.

Dr. Caldwell and I were grateful to meet with him as we build on our strong bipartisan relationship to deliver for New Jerseyans.

"In a very specific, economic way, he is destroying your ability to succeed." Trump's personal corruption and harmful economic policies aren't footnotes, and resisting them is very important.

Thank you Brigadier General Yvonne Mays and Deputy Commissioner Vincent Solomeno for sharing details on the preparations underway for the two distinct departments focused on veterans affairs and military affairs.

Veterans Day was the perfect time to get a briefing on the upcoming reorganization of the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs.

Earlier today, I had the pleasure of speaking at the Livingston Veterans Day Ceremony to honor the service of New Jerseyans in the armed forces and to discuss the importance of taking care of our veterans when they come home.

On Veterans Day, and all year long, it’s critical that we continue to share the stories of those who served and the sacrifices they made to protect the rights and freedoms we cherish.

Thank you for inspiring us (and so many others) to lead with courage, purpose, and heart.

— Team Mikie 💙

Mikie is making history as the first woman veteran ever elected Governor of any state. Over the course of her career — and throughout this campaign — she's embodied the very best of what it means to serve.

Please join us in thanking Navy veterans Gov-Elect Mikie Sherrill and future First Gentleman Jason Hedberg for their service to this country!

Exclusive: ‘She was the best man for the job’: Hegseth’s policies are forcing qualified women out of the military | CNN Politics Active service women and men who spoke to CNN say that goals Hegseth laid out often don’t make sense and will damage the military.

If Pete Hegseth believed in prioritizing merit in the military, he would have stepped down a long time ago.

I’m proud to stand in a long line of badass women who have served or are currently serving their country, even when people like Pete Hegseth refuse to give us equal opportunity to lead.

As governor, I'm prepared to bring everyone to the table in order to serve New Jersey. It was a pleasure to meet with GOP Assembly Minority Leader Asm. John DiMaio for a conversation on our shared goals for a more affordable, stronger New Jersey.

Wishing a happy Veterans Day to every American who's kept us safe at home and defended our democracy overseas. It’s an honor to have served our nation, and I’m indebted to every veteran who paved the path forward with their service — thank you.

She’s a fighter, a leader, and a Jersey legend whose legacy of service will live on for generations. Fair winds and following seas on this next chapter!

When I came to Congress, @repbonnie.bsky.social was the only other woman in the New Jersey delegation. It was a joy to have her as a mentor and watch her work relentlessly on behalf of her district, but an even greater honor getting to know her on a personal level.

My statement on the proposed Senate deal

These cuts are a direct attack on New Jersey families, and the courts must hold him accountable. My administration will fight back — working to ensure every New Jerseyan can afford to put food on the table.

Today in Newark, I joined volunteers at a local food bank and met with nonprofit partners to support families hurt by Donald Trump’s illegal cuts to SNAP benefits.

I spent the past year campaigning with the promise to deliver for you, New Jersey.

Yesterday, I met with Democratic Senate and Assembly leadership — and we’re getting right to work to keep that promise and move our state forward.

Election Night on film

I wouldn't be here today without the thousands of New Jerseyans who volunteered their time to knock doors, make phone calls, and send texts.

In the final 18 days alone, you knocked over 400,000 doors and made over 3.2 million calls. I couldn't be more grateful for this team.
