Senator Andy Kim, who has represented New Jersey’s 3rd district in the U.S. Congress since 2019, shared a series of posts on July 11, 2025, addressing concerns about proposed federal budget cuts, recent personnel changes in government agencies, and new legislative efforts to support military families.
In a post published at 13:20 UTC, Senator Kim criticized proposed reductions in federal spending under the Trump Administration. He stated, “The Trump Administration is propsing over $9 billion in cuts to foreign assistance and public broadcasting. If Republicans agree to these cuts, they will be going back on their word and clawing back funds they already voted for.” He further warned about potential future actions by the administration and Republican lawmakers.
Later that day at 17:25 UTC, Kim addressed recent dismissals of government employees under President Trump. He wrote, “This is devastating. Trump is firing civil servants and foreign service officers who do critical work to ensure America’s continued global leadership and ability to counter threats abroad.” He expressed concern about the long-term impact these firings could have on U.S. interests.
At 19:40 UTC on July 11, Senator Kim highlighted new legislation he introduced alongside Senator Tammy Duckworth and Representative Terri Sewell. In his words: “This week, I introduced the Improving Access to Prenatal Care for Military Families Act alongside @SenDuckworth and @RepTerriSewell. Expecting military moms deserve peace of mind that they’ll have the right healthcare for them when they need it most.”
Senator Andy Kim was born in Boston in 1982 and currently resides in Moorestown. He graduated from Deep Springs College in 2002 and earned a BA from the University of Chicago in 2004.
