Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne, representing Texas' 24th District since 2021, recently shared her insights on various topics through a series of tweets. Born in Ithaca, New York, and currently residing in Irving, Van Duyne has been an active political figure following her graduation from Cornell University in 1995. Her social media updates cover interactions with educational institutions, concerns over federal agency operations, and developments in the state's economic landscape.

On February 12, 2025, Congresswoman Van Duyne expressed her satisfaction after meeting with leaders and students at Dallas College. She discussed their experiences on campus and highlighted programs that serve a significant number of North Texans annually. "I enjoyed chatting with leaders and students from @dallascollegetx yesterday about their experiences on campus and programs that serve 70,000 North Texans annually."

In another tweet posted on February 13, 2025, she criticized the focus of Democrats concerning IRS audits. Van Duyne noted that despite significant financial investments into the agency, no improvements have been observed. "While Americans face years long backlogs at the IRS, Democrats have been focused on increasing audits on working families and small businesses. Billions of dollars were thrown at the agency and not a single thing has improved."

Further discussing Texas' economic climate later that day, Van Duyne praised the state's business-friendly environment characterized by low taxes and minimal regulations. She celebrated the launch of NYSE Texas in Dallas as a boost to the local economy's strength. "The Lone Star State is an economic powerhouse and continues to draw businesses due to our low taxation and lighter approach to regulation. The launch of NYSE Texas, headquartered in Dallas, will make our economy even stronger!"
