Rep. Frank Pallone, a longtime U.S. Congressman representing New Jersey’s 6th district, used his social media platform on December 1, 2025, to criticize the Trump Administration’s policies on public health and energy costs.

In a post made at 19:58 UTC, Pallone stated, “This is what happens when you have an Administration that completely ignores science. It will result in fewer kids getting life-saving vaccines and more suffering from vaccine-preventable diseases.”

Later that evening at 20:56 UTC, he addressed energy policy concerns with another message: “Oh look. Another way the Trump Admin is raising energy costs on middle class families.

Oil & gas companies want to spew and waste methane instead of controlling it. Why? Because it’s consumers like you who pay for the wasted energy – not them.

This is just another favor to”

At 22:37 UTC the same day, Pallone commented on economic issues related to tariffs: “Trump started this runaway train of price hikes. Big corporations are keeping it running, full speed ahead.

This is what we’ve been saying all along! Tariff taxes STRANGLE American consumers.”

Frank Pallone has represented New Jersey’s 6th District in Congress since 1988 after serving in the New Jersey Senate from 1984 to 1988. He was born in Long Branch, New Jersey in 1951 and continues to reside there. Pallone holds a BA from Middlebury College (1973) and a JD from Rutgers University-Camden (1978).
