Today marks the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Postal Service, older than our nation itself. The USPS is a service, not a business. And it belongs to the people, not corporate profiteers!

When you demand better wages and benefits, but management offers a pizza party instead.

This is basically what it’s like listening to my Republican colleagues try to explain their vote for Medicaid cuts.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 25(source)

Great news! River Food Pantry has secured $12 million for their new facility. I’m honored to have helped secure $3 million for this critical project that will feed countless families. www.wkow.com/news/top-sto...

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 25(source)

Here’s the brutal truth: 51,000 Americans will die every year because of Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid. Let’s reverse these cuts to Medicaid and save lives!

In 1965, CEOs made 20 times what workers did. In 2024, it was 285. Productivity went up. Wages didn’t. Wonder who pocketed the difference? aflcio.org/paywatch

It’s why I’m a co-sponsor of the Raise the Wage Act and will continue to fight for its passage so that the minimum wage is a livable wage.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 24(source)

16 years. That’s how long it’s been since the national minimum wage was increased in the United States. No member of Congress could live on $7.25 an hour, and they know it.

I look forward to seeing what he accomplishes over the next year and a half. My best wishes for him and Kathy on their next adventure.

@govevers.wisconsin.gov has served Wisconsin admirably for five decades, and I’m proud to call him my friend. He brought decency back to the State House and always fought for what was right.

Nearly 800,000 doses of the mpox vaccine that we originally pledged to African nations may go to waste. @sarajacobs.house.gov and I led 46 of our colleagues in a letter to Secretary Rubio urging him to immediately deliver these lifesaving vaccines to the people who need them.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 23(source)

I joined @CNN today to call out Republicans in Congress who only care about protecting the elite. Whether it's shutting Congress down for the summer to prevent the Epstein files from getting out or passing massive tax cuts for billionaires, we know who has their back.

More than 100 aid groups warn of 'mass starvation' in Gaza amid Israel's war with Hamas

A statement released by the 115 aid groups warned of "record rates of acute malnutrition" in the Gaza Strip.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 23(source)

There is no excuse for Israel under Netanyahu to block food, bomb aid convoys, and shoot civilians at food lines. It’s abhorrent and illegal. This lifesaving aid must be allowed to enter Gaza ASAP.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 22(source)

It’s not easy to convince everyday people that trillions added to the debt and cuts to Medicaid to pay for tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy will somehow benefit them. No wonder the Big Ugly Bill is polling so badly. I’m glad more people are noticing! apnews.com/article/trum...

Most US adults think the GOP tax bill will help the wealthy and harm the poor, AP-NORC poll finds

A new AP-NORC poll shows that while Republican elected officials are promoting their recently passed tax and spending bill as a win for working Americans, everyday Americans broadly see it as a win…

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 22(source)

Trump said he would give his “rich as hell” donors a tax cut and Republicans in Congress fought like hell to make it happen. How will they pay for it? By ripping millions of Americans off of Medicaid. I believe we should tax the rich and that healthcare is a human right!
