Trump’s proposal to increase the war budget by over 40% with no justification would be the most egregious waste of taxpayer dollars I have ever seen.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 7(source)

As Co-Chair of the Defense Spending Reduction Caucus, I’ve been sounding the alarm on wasteful and bloated military spending for years under both Democrat and Republican administrations.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 7(source)

And every single one of my Republican colleagues should unequivocally condemn this grotesque, unhinged behavior.

25th Amendment RIGHT NOW! Trump is too unhinged, dangerous, and deranged to have the nuclear codes!

Pro-Palestinian activist, Islamic Society of Milwaukee president detained by ICE

Salah Sarsour, a legal permanent resident of the U.S., was detained by ICE in connection to his arrest as a teen in the West Bank, a mosque leader said.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 7(source)

But a week later, we still don’t have any answers from ICE as to why. He’s been a fixture in his community for years and a leader in Milwaukee. It’s long past time for ICE to release him and stop this unjust crusade.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 7(source)

Over the past year, ICE has waged a campaign of fear and terror in this country. Just last week, they took Salah Sarsour, President of the Islamic Society of Milwaukee, for apparently no reason other than his speaking out against Israel’s unjust war in Gaza and fighting for Palestinian rights.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 6(source)

Congress needs to get back to DC to fund FEMA, TSA, and the Coast Guard, and to vote to end this illegal war with Iran!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 6(source)

REMINDER: The Republicans' budget bill made private jets tax-deductible. Yes, it made private jets fully tax-deductible. It’s clear who Republican politicians are working for… and it’s not you.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 5(source)

2 in 3 Americans want the war in Iran to end. We are tired of our tax dollars being wasted on an unnecessary war and ready for change!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 4(source)

While taxpayers are on the hook for a $1 billion/day war in Iran, more than half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. We need to ensure that Americans' needs are met here at home, not burning billions on unnecessary wars.

Great news! Wisconsin’s Registered Apprenticeship program has reached record high enrollment for the fourth year in a row. Thank you, govevers.wisconsin.gov! Let’s keep up the great work.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 3(source)

A $1.5 trillion defense budget is unconscionable. We already spend more than the next nine countries combined. This is a 40% bump from this year's record levels, and now Trump would have us spend more than the NEXT 34 COUNTRIES COMBINED!!! www.nytimes.com/2026/04/03/u...

A year ago today, Trump illegally declared across-the-board tariffs on nearly every nation on earth. When I asked Treasury Secretary Bessent who paid the tariffs, he was unable (or more likely unwilling) to answer. Spoiler alert: it’s American consumers.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 2(source)

If Trump thinks he's playing 3-dimensional chess, I'm not sure he's winning...

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 1(source)

@doggett.house.gov is a progressive titan in Congress. I had a great discussion with him about closing tax loopholes for the ultra-wealthy, lowering the cost of prescription drugs, and more! Watch here: youtu.be/hV1Jkhzj1lg

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 1(source)

A reminder that the House is currently in recess after Speaker Johnson sent us home. The Senate UNANIMOUSLY passed a bill to fund TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard. But Speaker Johnson is refusing to let the House vote on it. This shutdown is on him.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govApr 1(source)

Another big COURT WIN! A federal judge ruled that Trump's executive order denying federal funds to NPR and PBS based on editorial viewpoint was unconstitutional. A great victory for the First Amendment against government censorship.

On #TransgenderDayOfVisibility, leaders of the Equality Caucus have a message for the transgender community, their friends, and their families: We see you, and we are fighting for you—every day. youtube.com/shorts/NUBbT...
