Rep. Andy Kim, currently serving New Jersey’s 3rd district in the U.S. Congress, has been vocal on several policy issues this week through his social media presence. Kim, who started his congressional tenure in 2019 after replacing Tom MacArthur, focuses on peace efforts and healthcare matters.

On April 3, 2025, Rep. Kim emphasized the importance of peace in the Middle East. He shared "Senator Kim’s statement on prioritizing enduring peace and security for Israeli and Palestinian people". This demonstrates his commitment to international and diplomatic issues.

On April 4, 2025, he criticized a Republican budget proposal, stating, "Republicans' budget threatens to cut Medicaid so they can give tax cuts and tax breaks to the ultra rich. The choice they're putting before us is making your lives worse to make their lives better." This tweet highlights his concern over potential budget cuts affecting healthcare funding.

The next day, on April 5, 2025, he reiterated his stance on healthcare, focusing on Medicaid. In his tweet, he shared, "Caring for a loved one is hard, for anyone. Medicaid is there for families when they need it most, we must protect it." This underscores his advocacy for safeguarding health resources for families.
