“South Jersey is a great place to live, plant roots and raise a family because of the dedicated efforts of committed individuals who lift up our communities,” Norcross said. “The Center for Family Services and its AmeriCorps programs provide opportunities for individuals to give back to the world around them and help their neighbors. Thanks to these grants, our streets will be cleaner, our roads will be safer and our economy will continue to grow.

“It’s great to witness Camden’s historic transformation and it’s an honor to be a part of it,” Congressman Donald Norcross said. “We’ve seen tremendous job growth in Camden, along with major improvements in city schools, parks, and public safety.

U.S. Congressman Donald Norcross (NJ-01) – Chair of the Subcommittee on Tactical Air and Land Forces and a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee – today toured Picatinny Arsenal, which plays a key role in developing and supporting the munitions of the U.S. Army and contributes to the state’s economy, and received assurances from senior leadership on-site that the Army has no plans to shift Picatinny’s critical mission set or high-tech jobs to another location.

Today, U.S. Congressman Donald Norcross issued the following statement on his vote in favor of the Save the Internet Act, H.R. 1644:

Monday was April Fool’s Day, and the day that followed is the real, cruel joke – Equal Pay Day. It marks the extra three-plus months that women must work just to earn what their male counterparts did in the year before. As companies close the books on first quarter of 2019, on Equal Pay Day we all must acknowledge how backward it is that an American woman has to work five quarters to earn as much as the average man did in four. But we can help change that. We can take action so that Equal Pay Day isn’t a necessarily evil, but a memory of an injustice that we overcame together.
