Dear Friend,
This Sunday marks the beginning of daylight savings time, which means we set our clocks forward an hour. The practice was formally established through law in 1966 under the Uniform Time Act.
Some Americans support keeping the current rules while others favor eliminating daylight savings time altogether. How do you feel? Take my survey below!
Sincerely,
Nellie Pou
Member of Congress

Dear Friend,
This past weekend I joined our Ukrainian community to mark three years since Russia invaded its neighbor. The pain in the eyes and in the voices of our neighbors breaks my heart.
In North Jersey, we are blessed to live in one of the most vibrant districts in all America. A key part of that is one of the largest Ukrainian communities in our nation. I am honored to stand with so many proud members of that community at this dark time.

Dear Friend:
We have just learned that the Trump administration and Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) are slashing funding supporting the health care of 9/11 first responders. This is shameful and must be reversed.
Our North Jersey communities suffered deeply on September 11. The scars from that day remain with us. We will always be in debt to the enduring courage of our first responders who ran to the burning towers and then spent months searching for those we lost and clearing the debris.

The recent decision by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by billionaire Elon Musk, to fire hundreds of workers at the Federal Aviation Administration is an outrage.
Just weeks ago, America suffered its first major commercial plane crash in nearly 16 years. Additionally, recent American flight disasters in Philadelphia, Alaska, and now Toronto have caused injuries and claimed lives.
