Joe Morelle, a Representative of New York's 25th district in the U.S. Congress, took to Twitter to discuss various pressing issues, including the opioid epidemic, cuts to addiction services, and the implications of trade policies. Morelle, who has represented the district since 2018, shared his views on Twitter, underscoring his concerns about federal policies and local responses.
In a tweet dated April 7, 2025, Morelle expressed his appreciation for County Executive Bello's efforts to maintain open facilities for those battling addiction: "The opioid epidemic has touched all our lives—whether through personal experience or the stories of friends and loved ones. I’m grateful to County Executive Bello for his leadership and swift response to keep facilities open so those facing addiction aren’t left alone in their".
On the same day, Morelle criticized the Trump Administration for proposed reductions in addiction services: "The Trump Administration’s cuts to addiction services would shutter life-saving resources families rely on during their time of need.

The congressman highlighted his collaboration with local officials to address these challenges.
Additionally, Morelle addressed economic strain on Americans due to proposed trade policies, sharing his concerns about the impact on household expenses: "Americans are already stretched thin—rent, groceries, healthcare.
