Happy New Year from NJ-07! 🎉 2026 can be a year of real change—for our families, our communities, and our democracy. I’m running for Congress to turn hope into lasting progress on the ground. Join us and let’s make it happen together.

Has been a long time since I’ve had one of these land on me in the middle of a corn field. Pic of Ostrinia nubilalis on my shirt that is covered in Puccinia polysora spores.

Some of you might know Megan as a talented ecologist and some of you may know her from interacting with her through NIFA. She’s running for Congress!! Consider supporting her effort. I did and I live a LONG way from her district… I’m taking a longer view…

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law: “It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

Had the opportunity to visit @montereyaq.bsky.social a couple weeks back and I’m still in awe of their exhibits. Highly recommend!

I spied several warbler nests while trekking around Spring Creek Wildlife Refuge in Lincoln, NE. Maybe American yellow warbler nests? Either that or American redstarts. Or I suppose it could be both…

Massive thanks to @truebug.bsky.social for having me out last week at @unlincoln.bsky.social. I got to visit with Doctor of Plant Health (dph.unl.edu) students and catch up with old friends. Jody Green and I have been in Extension circles for YEARS, and Andy Little and I were at UGA together.
