Rep. Mark Pocan, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Wisconsin’s 2nd district, has recently shared his thoughts and announcements on social media. His tweets provide insight into legislative efforts and funding allocations impacting his constituency.
On December 8, 2024, Rep. Pocan expressed skepticism with a brief comment: "Man of the people ".
The following day, December 9, 2024, he announced significant financial support from federal legislation: "BIG NEWS! We received more than $20 million from the Inflation Reduction Act, which I voted for, to increase energy efficiency & workforce training programs in Madison & Fitchburg. Excited to see even more funding coming to our area that will continue to benefit our community."
Later on December 9, Rep. Pocan addressed labor issues related to wage theft: "Under current federal law, employers who commit wage theft far too often get nothing more than a slap on the wrist. As an original cosponsor of the Don’t STEAL Act, I’m working to change that! It's time for @SpeakerJohnson to bring this bill to the Floor."
