Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, representing Texas' 30th district, recently shared her views on various pressing issues through a series of tweets. These posts address significant concerns such as women's rights in Texas, government intervention in personal choices regarding children, and her gratitude upon being sworn in for a second term.

On January 30, 2025, Congresswoman Crockett expressed concern over the impact of Texas' total abortion ban on women. She stated, "Women deserve to know the TRUTH about the impact of Texas' total abortion ban." Crockett highlighted that she, along with other representatives, sent another letter urging the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to release maternal mortality data from the past two years following the Dobbs decision.

Later that day, Crockett addressed issues concerning governmental control over children's identities and attire in schools. She asserted that "The government has no right to decide what name or nickname your child goes by in class." She emphasized that these policies are not only an attack on transgender children but also an infringement on personal choice.

On January 31, 2025, Congresswoman Crockett expressed gratitude for being sworn in for a second term. She thanked those who supported her during the swearing-in ceremony and reaffirmed her commitment to serving Texas' 30th district. As she noted, "I’m so grateful to be sworn in for a second term in Texas 30!"
