Rep. Marc Veasey, a seasoned U.S. Congressman representing Texas’s 33rd District since 2013, recently expressed concerns on social media regarding a proposed legislative bill by the Republican Party. His tweets criticize the implications of what he refers to as the “Big Ugly Bill.”
On June 18, 2025, Rep. Veasey stated “Republicans talk about how their ‘Big Ugly Bill’ would only take benefits away from the undeserving- that’s a flat out lie.” This comment suggests that the bill’s impact is more extensive than claimed by its proponents.
In another tweet posted on the same day, Rep. Veasey highlighted that “13 million families below the poverty line would be affected in some way”. This remark underscores his concern about the potential repercussions for vulnerable populations.
Further elaborating on June 18, Rep. Veasey noted that “The bill cuts hundreds of billions from: Medicaid, SNAP, and various tax credits”. These programs are crucial for many low-income individuals and families.
Marc Veasey’s background includes serving in both state and federal legislative bodies since 2005. Born in Fort Worth, Texas in 1971 and an alumnus of Texas Wesleyan University, he has consistently been involved in issues affecting his constituents.
