The statement below is by Commissioners Jonathan Young and Al Dyer on behalf of the Cadmen County Board of Commissioners regarding the racist graffiti found in a residential neighborhood in the borough of Lawnside. “This weekend, in the historically black community of Lawnside, a resident was the victim of a racist attack and a hate crime.

Lawnside is a beautiful town with a deep connection to the African American community, as it was the first independent, self-governing African American municipality north of the Mason–Dixon Line. And to see such a blatant attack on our Camden County community is frightening and appalling to say the least. As we have said, this hatred is completely unacceptable, and... Read more →

Rep. Van Drew Questions Secretary Buttigieg on Offshore Wind This week, I had the opportunity to question Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg at a House Transportation and Infrastructure hearing. I questioned him on whether the Department of Transportation (DOT) was doing enough to ensure safety is a priority in areas where offshore wind farms are being constructed. Despite major concerns over maritime and aerial safety, these projects are being pushed forward before adequate safety impact studies have been conducted. I pressed Secretary Buttigieg to ensure safety is prioritized before proceeding with further construction.
