Mikie Sherrill, a United States Congresswoman representing New Jersey's 11th District since 2019, expressed her commitment to supporting working people across the nation through a series of tweets. Sherrill, who hails from a family of union workers, emphasized her dedication as a member of the Labor Caucus. These statements were made in her social media posts, where she discusses various issues impacting her constituents and the nation.

On March 28, 2025, Sherrill reaffirmed her support for workers, stating, "As the granddaughter of a union worker and a member of the @Labor_Caucus, I will always stand with working people across New Jersey and the country. (3/3)".

The following day, on March 29, 2025, Sherrill posted her concerns over national security by criticizing Pete Hegseth's actions, stating that "Pete Hegseth sharing dates, times, and locations of American air strikes over an unsecured Signal chat was deeply dangerous to service members across the globe." She underlined the potential risks posed to military personnel.

Continuing her remarks on the same date, she highlighted the gravity of these security breaches with another post, stating, "Now, if you were to tell one of the pilots involved in this Houthi bombing, who wasn’t even flying in a stealth aircraft, that her flight was going to be discussed in an unclassified text chain, I can promise you she would not consider this harmless unclassified information."
