“Every child needs and deserves a safe place to learn with all of the necessary resources, tools and technology available to them,” said Congressman Norcross. “It has taken us nearly 20 years to get to this point where shovels are finally piercing the ground and I am proud to have fought tooth and nail for this vital investment in our community, our children and our future. It’s exciting for everyone in Camden that we’re moving forward so that all students are afforded the best of the best.”

“I am honored to have attended the D-Day commemorations in Normandy on the 75th Anniversary of the ‘the longest day.’ I’m constantly in awe of the sacrifices made by the greatest generation in the name of freedom and that was reinforced during this trip,” said Norcross. “It was remarkably moving to be standing in a location where I could look at Omaha Beach in front of me and simultaneous have more than 9,000 American heroes buried behind me. Those Americans made the ultimate sacrifice and protected the world from tyranny. If it wasn’t for those brave men and women who stormed these beaches 75 years ago, we wouldn’t be here today.”
