Representative Jerry Nadler, who has served New York’s 12th district in the U.S. Congress since 1992, recently addressed a series of issues on social media concerning national security, constitutional rights, and international incidents involving American citizens. Nadler, a long-serving lawmaker with prior experience in the New York State Assembly and educational credentials from Columbia University and Fordham University, used his platform to comment on matters of public service, presidential authority, and violence abroad.
On July 11, 2025, Nadler expressed appreciation for government employees while criticizing former President Donald Trump and Senator Marco Rubio. He stated: “I’m grateful to these public servants for their service to our country. Donald Trump and Marco Rubio should be ashamed of themselves for gutting our diplomatic corps, endangering national security, and treating our civil servants as disposable.”
The following day, July 12, 2025, Nadler addressed concerns about presidential powers regarding citizenship.

Nadler’s remarks reflect his ongoing engagement with both domestic policy issues and international human rights concerns during his tenure representing New York’s 12th district. Having succeeded Ted Weiss in Congress in 1992 after serving in state government since 1977, Nadler is recognized for his legal background as well as his legislative experience.
