Congressman Donald Norcross, who represents New Jersey’s 1st district in the U.S. Congress, has recently expressed his views on several important issues through a series of tweets. These statements reflect his positions on violence against law enforcement, workers’ rights, and the role of women in the military.
On January 23, 2025, Congressman Norcross addressed the issue of violence against law enforcement officers and elected leaders. He stated, “Police officers were seriously injured, and multiple died while answering the call to defend American democracy and our elected leaders. We are not a country that tolerates violence against elected leaders or assaults on law enforcement.”
The following day, January 24, 2025, he expressed solidarity with union workers advocating for fair wages and working conditions. As a former union electrician himself, he tweeted: “As a union electrician, I know what it means to fight for a living wage and fair treatment at work. I stand with @DCCulinaryUnion workers at @LeDiplomateDC, @RasikaDC and others as they organize for dignity on the job and a fair day’s wage for a hard day’s work.”
Later that same day, Congressman Norcross reflected on the contributions of women in the military since the removal of the combat exclusion policy by the Department of Defense twelve years ago. He remarked: “Twelve years ago, @DeptofDefense removed the combat exclusion policy for women. Since then, countless women have put their lives on the line to serve and protect our nation. I’m inspired by their bravery and excited to see the next generation of women warriors leading the way.”
