Jared Golden U.S. House of Representatives from Maine's 2nd district | Official U.S. House Headshot
Congressman Jared Golden, representing Maine's 2nd district since 2019, has recently taken to social media to address concerns about local and national issues. On February 4, 2025, he posted a series of tweets highlighting the prolonged closure of the West Paris Post Office and expressing his views on Elon Musk's interactions with former President Donald Trump.
On February 4, 2025, Congressman Golden expressed frustration over the lack of progress in reopening the West Paris Post Office. "It’s unacceptable that nearly four years after the closure of the West Paris Post Office — and months after signing a new lease — there’s still no concrete reopening plan." He stated that he had sent a letter to Postmaster General DeJoy demanding answers and a resumption of services.
In a subsequent tweet on the same day, Golden provided further information for those interested in his correspondence with the Postmaster General. "Read it here: https://t.co/YlQut5Ppk1"
Later that evening, Golden commented on Elon Musk's actions regarding former President Trump. He tweeted about Musk's independence from presidential approval. "Musk is stepping on the president’s toes — making decisions without his approval, pursuing his own agenda. If I had an employee that sidelined me the way Musk is sidelining Trump, I don’t think I’d just sit back and take it."
