Mark Pocan, currently serving as a U.S. Congressman representing Wisconsin’s 2nd district, released several statements on March 28, 2025, through social media, addressing issues concerning workers' rights and alleged governmental actions. Pocan has been a congress member since 2013 and has been active in discussions related to labor and workers' rights.

On March 28, 2025, Pocan expressed his participation in the “#WTFShow” hosted by Donald Norcross. In the segment, Pocan discussed alleged “attacks on workers from the Musk/Trump administration” and detailed the efforts of the Labor Caucus to counteract these issues. His post can be found here.

Later that day, Pocan critiqued an action from the Trump administration as "authoritarianism" for arresting individuals based on their political views. He noted his endorsement of a letter, along with over 30 colleagues, requesting the release of Rumeysa Ozturk and the restoration of her visa. His comments were posted here.

In another post, Pocan passionately conveyed his disapproval of union-busting activities. He simply stated, "Say it with me: UNION BUSTING IS DISGUSTING!" indicating a clear stance against such practices. This post can be accessed here.
