Beth Van Duyne, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 24th district, has been vocal on social media regarding various issues affecting her community and beyond. On February 8, 2025, she addressed topics ranging from local governance to national economic policies.

Later that day, at 18:53 UTC, Van Duyne compared Irving—where she previously served as mayor—to sanctuary cities. She stated, "Here’s the difference between Irving, where I served as mayor, and sanctuary cities that break the law to hide criminal illegal aliens: We care about our community’s safety, they put America Last because they only care about getting on MSNBC." This tweet included mentions of @RitaCosby and @johncatsjr.

At 21:44 UTC on the same day, Van Duyne discussed potential economic impacts related to federal tax policy. She tweeted about the Trump Tax Cuts and their significance for small businesses in her district. According to her post, "We have an incredible opportunity to undo some of the harm done to small businesses by the Biden-Harris Administration by enacting meaningful pro-growth reforms. If the Trump Tax Cuts expire, 27,000 jobs and $5.3 billion in GDP will be at risk in #TX24."
