The people of New Jersey deserve a US Attorney that has deep experience with law enforcement, a reputation and an approach that puts partisanship to the side, and who will work to keep our communities safe and impartially pursue justice.

It’s clear that Alina Habba does not meet the standard to serve the people of New Jersey.
