This is what I love about the job—putting dollars to work for families and getting them the services they need most.

I was happy to bring Seton Hall Law School $627,000 in Community Project Funding to expand the Family Law Clinic Survivor Support Program.

Grateful to @replamonica.bsky.social for securing federal funding to strengthen Seton Hall Law’s work preventing domestic and sexual violence and supporting survivors. Learn how this funding supports our Family Law Clinic ⬇️

Very proud of @setonhallhealthlaw.bsky.social law students Christina Tao, Emily Raedisch, and Evander Tang for competing in the 2026 Health Law Regulatory & Compliance Competition at the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law this weekend!

Proud to join with colleagues and all of you to denounce civil rights violations and defend our Constitution and democracy. We all must educate ourselves and use our voices. Engage and shine a light! We are better and must do better.

I also witnessed his grit, mastery of complex concepts, artful communication, and professionalism in the National Health Law Moot Court Competition in fall 2024. Joe earned Fifth Best Oralist honors in the preliminary rounds, and he and his partner, Tanya Panossian-Lesser, placed 3rd! #healthlaw

I was not surprised by Joe’s superb Comment, as he consistently asked insightful, thoughtful questions and received the highest grade in my Mental Health Law class. @setonhallhealthlaw.bsky.social #healthlaw

It was an honor to supervise Joe's Comment, which deftly analyzed state step therapy legislation in the context of the nation’s ongoing mental health crisis and complex health insurance regulatory system. Joe made incisive recommendations for more expansive and effective step therapy regulation.

Congrats to Joseph Keller for receiving the Best Published Comment by a Graduating Student Award for "Limiting Step Therapy on Mental Health Medications: Why a More Expansive Approach is Needed"(scholarship.shu.edu/shlj/vol49/i...)! Keep shining as a #SetonHallLawyer! #SetonHallLawProud #healthlaw

Firings sweep across FDA as former leaders lament drug agency's gutting Mass firings and forced resignations swept through the FDA on Tuesday, as part of thousands of planned job cuts at federal health agencies being implemented by the Trump administration.

FDA update: Staff who've witnessed this morning's scene at the agency headquarters described it as a "bloodbath". The firings include whole offices at the regulator, multiple FDA sources told Endpoints, including leadership and administrative staff in several departments.
