Representative Jerry Nadler, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing New York's 12th district, has recently shared several updates on social media. These posts cover legislative efforts and community engagement initiatives.

On March 5, 2025, Rep. Nadler highlighted the historical significance of the Voting Rights Act (VRA), stating that it had been "an unqualified success" in preventing discriminatory voting laws. He criticized the Supreme Court for weakening the VRA but expressed his commitment to restoring its provisions through new legislation: "SCOTUS gutted the VRA—but @HouseDemocrats are fighting back. Proud to join my colleagues in reintroducing the John Lewis VRA to #restorethevote."

In another tweet posted later that day, Rep. Nadler invited high school artists from New York's 12th district to participate in the Congressional Art Competition, which is open until April 25th. He encouraged students to visit his website for more information: "#NY12 High School Artists: The Congressional Art Competition is now open until April 25th!

Additionally, Rep. Nadler shared a link via Twitter without accompanying text or context: "https://t.co/PTKWXvPXUB".
