Issue Position

Senator Menendez brought home millions in federal funding to keep thousands of New Jersey teachers in our schools.

To make sure our children can compete with anyone in this nation or across the globe, Senator Menendez supports strengthening science education in the classroom and reforming and upgrading those schools that are failing our kids.

As the first in his family to get a college education, Bob knows how important a quality education is, so he helped pass new tax breaks and increased financial aid for college by $36 billion, which will make college more affordable for middle class families.

Helped county colleges partner with non-profit organizations and labor groups so that people can get the real-world skills they need in order to get the jobs that have a bright future.

Bob is fighting to stop the interest rate for college loans from doubling- saving more than 140,000 New Jersey students and their families an average of $1000 more per year.
