Senator Andy Kim, representing New Jersey’s 3rd district in the U.S. Congress, shared a series of statements on April 15, 2025, via social media. The tweets addressed concerns regarding Social Security, international relations, and a call for diplomatic action.
In a tweet posted at 18:32 UTC, Senator Kim highlighted the challenges faced by Americans in accessing their Social Security benefits. He stated, “YOU earned your Social Security. You shouldn’t have to wait in long lines, be put on hold, or be told you don’t deserve it by Trump or Musk.” He emphasized the need for collective action on Social Security Day to ensure the reliability of benefits for millions of Americans.
Later that day, at 20:00 UTC, Kim expressed concerns over America’s strategic stance on global affairs with a tweet: “This retreat from the rest of the world does not make life cheaper for Americans, and only makes us weaker and more vulnerable.” This remark underscores his view on the implications of reduced international engagement.
In another statement issued at 22:15 UTC, Senator Kim called for action concerning a specific diplomatic matter: “My statement calling for the rightful return of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia.” His message points to a focus on international advocacy for rightful returns.
Andy Kim, who replaced Tom MacArthur in the U.S. Congress in 2019, has a background in academia, having graduated from the University of Chicago and Deep Springs College. The 40-year-old congressman was born in Boston and currently resides in Moorestown.
