Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, representing Texas’ 30th district since 2023, took to social media on April 17, 2025, to voice her perspectives on several topical political issues. Through a series of tweets, Crockett shared her thoughts on recent developments concerning Texas legislation, public health discussions, and proposed budget cuts.
On April 17, 2025, Crockett commented on a recent legislative development in Texas regarding school funding, stating “Well, well, well… looks like our favorite Trump cronies finally got their wish. Texas taxpayers now get to foot the bill for someone else’s kid’s private school tuition.” She criticized the bill and implied it has been consistently rejected by Texans, despite support from Governor Greg Abbott.
Later that day, Crockett addressed comments made by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about autism. In a tweet on April 17, 2025, she asserted “RFK Jr. is very loud and very WRONG about Autism.” She highlighted her belief that autism is not a disease and emphasized the capabilities of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder in society.
Continuing her activity on social media, Crockett expressed her opposition to proposed Republican budget cuts affecting Medicaid. In her post on April 17, 2025, she pointed out that “4.8 million Texans rely on Medicaid— kids, new moms, folks with disabilities, our elders.” She criticized Republican proposals for being “cruel, harmful cuts” and stressed the potential negative impact on communities.
Jasmine Crockett has a storied political background, having succeeded Eddie Bernice Johnson in Congress. Before her congressional career, she served in the Texas House of Representatives and maintains residence in Dallas, Texas. At 42, she remains an active participant in legislative debates impacting her constituents in Texas.
