WASHINGTON — Democratic Rep. Bill Pascrell, whose career in rough-and-tumble New Jersey politics spanned four decades and who in his later years became known for his sharp barbs against Donald Trump, died on Wednesday, according to a statement on his official X account. He was 87. 'It is with deep sadness that we announce that Bill Pascrell Jr., our beloved husband, father, and grandfather, passed away this morning, the statement said.

A. in journalism and an M.A. in philosophy, Pascrell taught high school history and was an adjunct professor. He got his start in politics during the late 1970s through local school boards: first with the Paterson Board of Education, where he served as president, then as a member of Passaic County Community College’s Board of Trustees. Pascrell won election to the New Jersey General Assembly in 1987.
