Today, U.S. Congressman Donald Norcross (NJ-01) issued the below statement following the House vote to condemn the Administration’s attacks on our health care system:

“Americans want and deserve affordable health care, but the Trump Administration is actively working to drive up prices and put coverage out of reach for millions by repealing the Affordable Care Act. Why would we ever want to rip coverage away from 30 million Americans and people with pre-existing conditions?!"

During the final week of Women’s History Month and one week before Equal Pay Day, Congressman Donald Norcross (NJ-01) voted for the Paycheck Fairness Act, H.R. 7, which passed the U.S. House of Representatives 242-187. Norcross co-sponsored the bill, which expands upon the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009.

U.S. Congressman Donald Norcross (NJ-01) today announced that Saint Joseph’s Carpenter Society will receive $207,500 in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) NeighborWorks America program to help provide affordable housing in Camden.

“With more jobs, less crime and positive educational results, it’s clear Camden is rising – and now we’re seeing more affordable housing options for our friends and neighbors,” said Congressman Norcross. “I’ve long-said that everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to live, and organizations like Saint Joseph’s Carpenter Society are rebuilding homes so that no family gets left behind. As always, I look forward to continuing to work with our partners at every level of government, charities and businesses as we keep making Camden an even better place to call home.”

U.S. Congressman Donald Norcross (NJ-01) today announced a $1,070,000 federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to the Southern New Jersey Perinatal Cooperative’s Camden Healthy Start program to improve the health and well-being of pregnant women, infants and families in Camden City.

Today, Congressmen Donald Norcross (D-NJ-01) and David McKinley, P.E. (R-WV-01) hosted the inaugural meeting of the Congressional Bipartisan Building Trades Caucus in the 116th Congress.

Norcross, an electrician by trade, and McKinley, an engineer who worked and taught in the construction industry, launched the caucus in 2016. The effort brings together Members of Congress from both sides of aisle to discuss issues that affect the millions of men and women who work in the construction industry.
