U.S. Congressman Donald Norcross (D-NJ-01) is on the House education and labor committee. He believes urban areas have been "vastly underserved."

"We want to do more than just talk about it,” he said. “We want to make sure that we invest in that next generation."

Rep. Donald Norcross, D-1st of Camden, was selected to chair the House Armed Services Tactical Air and Land Forces subcommittee on Wednesday. It is the largest among the Armed Services Committee’s seven subcommittees and helps control funding for equipment needs for all the services.

“Let’s go back a little further, when this started, they controlled the House, the Senate and the Presidency. They didn’t need us. This was a manufactured crisis to use humans,” Norcross said. “Everybody says ‘the president’s a great negotiator.’ A great negotiator is when you have something personally at stake. The only thing he has at stake is you, your pain. He’s hoping that other people will roll over.”
