Senator Bob Menendez is currently the Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and served as Chairman in the 113th Congress. He has earned a national reputation for his international leadership in the Senate, which pairs with his long-time reputation as a fighter for New Jersey families who puts their economic security ahead of powerful special interests.

​

As the novel coronavirus pandemic rocked the world, Bob has done everything in his power to deliver billions in critical federal resources to keep New Jerseyans safe, healthy, and prepared—despite the Trump Administration’s botched response.

Bob helped pass the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, to provide federal support for local hospitals, families, and small businesses during this public health emergency.
