Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne, representing Texas' 24th district since 2021, recently shared her views and achievements through a series of tweets. Van Duyne has been vocal about national security and local accomplishments in technology innovation.

On December 12, 2024, Congresswoman Van Duyne expressed frustration over the federal government's handling of border wall materials. She stated, "I introduced legislation FOUR YEARS AGO to give Texas this unused border wall material so we can build it ourselves. The Administration completely ignored our requests and is now using its final weeks to further cripple our national security. Unf*ingbelieveable."

Later that day, she celebrated the winners of the #TX24 Congressional App Challenge. In her tweet at 20:35 UTC, she congratulated the winners by saying, "Congratulations to this year’s #TX24 Congressional App Challenge winners!

In another tweet on December 12 at 21:33 UTC, Van Duyne discussed international trade policies under former President Trump. She commented on the effectiveness of tariffs as a strategic tool: "Tariffs are a powerful tool to hold foreign governments accountable. President Trump is already getting results because the world knows he’s serious about putting America First and will stand up for our national and economic security."
