Mark Pocan, a U.S. Congressman representing Wisconsin's 2nd district, has used his social media platform to share his perspectives on recent political and social issues. His engagement with these topics reflects his ongoing involvement in legislative matters and advocacy for various causes.

In a tweet dated April 3, 2025, Pocan asked followers, "Have you said thank you???" The purpose or context of the tweet is not provided, leaving room for interpretation.

Later that day, Pocan criticized the Trump administration's actions, stating "Firing all of the staff that provide heating and cooling assistance to low-income families is cruel and stupid. The Trump administration would rather give a tax cut to billionaires than help Americans afford their utility bills." This tweet reflects his disapproval regarding the administration's priorities and its effect on low-income families.

On April 4, 2025, Pocan commented on foreign policy decisions, expressing his concern over military assistance, stating "Trump is moving ahead with more than $12 billion in unconditioned weapons assistance to Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, which has killed at least 50,000 people in Gaza. Join me in speaking out against these weapons sales and making your voices heard!" Pocan's message calls for public opposition to the administration's plans.
