Joe Morelle, a U.S. Congress member representing New York's 25th district, has expressed his views on recent economic and sports developments through social media. Morelle has served in Congress since 2018 after succeeding Louise Slaughter and previously held a position in the New York State Assembly from 1991 to 2018.
On February 9, 2025, Joe Morelle criticized President Trump's trade policies by stating, "President Trump is waging a trade war on our allies, and Americans will pay the price—at the grocery store, at the gas pump, and around the kitchen table."
In another tweet on February 10, 2025, he shared his enthusiasm for local sports initiatives by saying he was "Excited to hear about the @BuffaloBills supported program to expand opportunities for girl's flag football in Rochester!" He highlighted the achievements of local athletes such as @BishopKearneyHS's state championship win last year.
Later that day, Morelle continued his critique of President Trump's economic strategies. He stated that "Despite Trump's claims that his tariffs will be paid by other countries, Americans will be stuck with the higher prices." He described these tariffs as reckless and harmful to everyday families.
