Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, currently serving in the United States Congress for Texas’ 30th district, has expressed her views on key political and economic issues through a series of tweets. These posts, dated April 10th and 11th, 2025, highlight her stance on recent policy decisions and their implications.
On April 10, 2025, Crockett criticized a recently passed Republican budget, stating, “Republicans just passed a budget that guts Medicaid, SNAP, veterans’ benefits, and free school lunches.” She further remarked on the economic impacts, dissenting, “They swore they’d fix the economy—but this sure as hell ain’t it.”
In another tweet dated April 11, 2025, Crockett addressed concerns over tariffs, rising prices, and what she perceives as the misuse of emergency powers. She questioned the media’s scrutiny of the current administration, commenting, “The math ain’t mathing.”
Later the same day, Congresswoman Crockett drew attention to the cost implications of healthcare policy changes, specifically for residents of Texas’ 30th district. She noted, “93,000 folks in TX-30 who get health coverage through the Affordable Care Act are looking at a $440 hike in premiums every year — that’s a 77% increase.” Crockett attributed this hike to tax breaks for billionaires.
In addition to her congressional career, Crockett’s background includes representing Texas’s 30th District since 2023, succeeding Eddie Bernice Johnson. Prior to her current role, she served in the Texas House of Representatives.
