Congressman for WI’s 2nd district, former Progressive Caucus Co-Chair. Small business owner. Labor union member. Tired of X.
Currently, we have gerrymandered Congressional maps in WI causing a 50/50 state to have 6 GOP/2 DEM members, not 4/4.
We can have FAIR maps like our state legislative ones.
Read the facts & SPEAK OUT. Our WI Supreme court can rule on fair maps for 2026!

Opinion | Wisconsin voters deserve fair maps in November
Mark Pocan: Two years ago, the state fixed its gerrymandered legislative maps. Now it's time to give voters a chance at fair representation in Congress.

Every GOP member of the House of Representatives is not in Washington this week. They are home.
Use this opportunity to ask them why they won’t stand up to Trump on his tariffs taxes you are paying, the increases in healthcare costs & his misuse of ICE.
Make them answer you.

The ONLY reason Trump keeps a rogue agency like ICE in Minneapolis is to INFLAME the situation.
They’ve murdered 2 innocent people so Trump can try to get his polling numbers up.
The blood is on Trump, Sec. Noem & Stephen Miller’s hands.
Sick people. Stand united everyone. 🇺🇸

WI’s Congressional maps are very gerrymandered. For a 50:50 purple state, we should have 4 Dems & 4 GOP. Instead, we have 6 GOP & 2 Dems due to gerrymandering.
The WI Supreme Court can change that & give us fair maps if they prioritize a case before them. Now is the time!

Tariffs on Denmark and Allies over Greenland!
Our President is an egomaniac and moron.
Now we all get to all pay more for goods so that Donald Trump can keep flaunt his ego.
Can’t we just give him another fucking award? Wake up, MAGA!

Trump says affordability is a “con job”.
I guess a guy who has gold-leafed the entire oval office and is building a ballroom larger than the White House at a cost that’s 10x that of a normal ballroom wouldn’t think affordability is an issue.
He doesn’t give a damn about you. 👎

Brendan Carr, the head of the FCC, reposted Donald Trump‘s social media saying Seth Meyer should be fired.
This is the same asshole who went after Jimmy Kimmel as Disney was trying to do a merger before him.
This guy is corrupt & needs to be investigated!

The Republicans that voted to reopen the government without a healthcare fix for the 22 million on the ACA and all of us paying more for health insurance due to the Big, Ugly Law, now own those increases.
If you are affected, remember who supported those cuts. 🤮

If @SenRonJohnson tries to get that $1 million corrupt payment that was inserted in the Senate proposal to reopen government, he needs to be recalled.
Corruption is making 8 well-connected people eligible for a payday.
Sen. Johnson must say he will refuse any corrupt payment.

Remember, the real problems are people like @derrickvanorden, who voted to cut SNAP food assistance and gut healthcare.

I sure as hell hope Senate Dems don’t take two oxen & a goat, with a promise of four chickens in the future, in trade to reopen government.

GOP cuts SNAP food assistance by over $180 billion in Big, Ugly Law.
Congress created a contingency fund to deal with issues like the shutdown. Even Trump’s Dept of Ag agrees on Congressional intent.
Trump refuses to follow & halts food assistance. GOP majority does nothing. 🤮

As bad as the GOP cuts to healthcare are, Trump’s Tariff Taxes hit us all hard every day.
Housing has remained high. Groceries & durable goods are up due to tariffs. Energy & healthcare are up due to the Big, Ugly Law.
What’s the priority? Our wallets or Trump’s ballroom?

Waking up knowing Trump, MAGA & clueless House GOP delivered a huge election victory last night.
People want to be able to afford groceries & other things (tariffs), want healthcare (Big Ugly), want food for poor (Big Ugly), and more.
Pretty simple. GOP works against you. 🇺🇸

Great weekend one year out from the November 2026 elections.
Stopped in Monroe, Darlington and Mineral Point. Great people ready to take back the US House. State Assembly & Senate, Governorship, AG, Treasurer & Sec. of State.

Wow. @derrickvanorden is in the wrong Capitol today. He’s in Madison lying about his vote to cut SNAP by over $150 billion in the Big, Ugly Bill, rather than bring in DC doing his job.
He admitted he didn’t ask for an earmark to help a veterans facility in his district.

Today would be a great day for the GOP in Congress to show up in DC & work, negotiating reopening of the government, a healthcare fix, a farm bill & much more.

This is the sixth week of paid vacation for House Republicans who refuse to come to Washington.
I’ll be there hoping they will negotiate to reopen govt, fix their healthcare attacks, pass a farm bill & much more.
If they don’t show up, they aren’t doing their jobs. Enough.
