Gottheimer tours Hudson River Tunnel with Transportation Secretary Buttigieg, New Jersey and New York Delegations
“To repair and upgrade this tunnel, the environmental review for Gateway’s Hudson Tunnel Project is now done, but we still need to invest in the actual construction, to which the State of New Jersey has already committed significant resources. That’s why I’m glad bipartisan groups in the Senate and the House Problem Solvers Caucus have come to consensus on an infrastructure package, which will ensure critical projects like Gateway can finally move forward. Now, it’s time to get it done. We can’t let this bipartisan, bicameral infrastructure package get derailed,” Gottheimer said.

Gottheimer, Pascrell Join Forces to Fight New York’s Congestion Taxes Targeting New Jersey Commuters
“In a formal request made today, Gottheimer and Pascrell are urging U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to commit to a comprehensive review of the effects that this new congestion tax will have on New Jersey’s commuters, and to require a robust public participation process, including public hearings in Northern New Jersey. The Members cite how the proposed congestion taxes will impact access to federal highways, result in double taxation to many commuters, and damage the regional economy at a precarious moment during COVID-19 recovery.”

Gottheimer Statement on Capitol Insurgence
"Today, we saw a violent mob attack and occupy the United States Capitol. They did not come to peacefully exercise their right to freedom of speech and assembly. They used improvised explosives, smashed windows, broke down doors, violently fought against, and injured, our law enforcement officers, and tore down the American flag. All of this was done in an attempt to overturn an election and those involved in today's attacks should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Their attempt to obstruct democracy was foiled.
