Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, representing Texas' 30th district in the U.S. Congress since 2023, recently addressed several issues through her social media platform. The posts cover topics related to military readiness, federal employment policies, and constituent services.

On January 29, 2025, Congresswoman Crockett expressed concern over a recent order that she believes will negatively impact military readiness. She stated, "LET'S BE CLEAR: This order will block QUALIFIED, PATRIOTIC, EXPERIENCED SERVICEMEMBERS from serving and defending our country. It DEGRADES OUR MILITARY READINESS during a recruitment shortage." She criticized former President Trump for prioritizing what she described as an "anti-trans witch hunt" over national security.

Later on the same day, Crockett criticized Trump's proposal regarding federal workers. She claimed that it offers a deceptive buyout with no assurance of job security post-acceptance. Her tweet read: "Trump is offering a fake 'buyout' to federal workers with no guarantee he won't screw them the minute they accept - and then replace them with unqualified, inexperienced loyalists the second they leave." She referenced Project 2025 in this context.

Additionally, Congresswoman Crockett invited constituents from DeSoto to join her District team on February 19th for assistance with various casework related to federal agencies. Her invitation was extended through a tweet stating: "DeSoto! Join my District team on February 19th for assistance with casework related to federal agencies. Tax returns, passports, Social Security benefits, and more - we are here to help!"
