Beth Van Duyne, a Congresswoman representing Texas' 24th district, shared insights on her recent engagements and political views through a series of tweets on February 20, 2025. Her statements addressed topics ranging from corporate visits to criticisms of government practices.

In a tweet posted at 19:24 UTC, Van Duyne expressed gratitude for the opportunity to visit Black & Veatch's office in Dallas. She remarked on the company's status as an employee-owned business with over a century-long history in engineering and construction. "I appreciate the opportunity to visit @Black_Veatch at their office in Dallas and meet their team! Black & Veatch is an employee-owned business with over a 100 year history as a global leader in engineering, construction, and program management."

Later that day at 20:54 UTC, she tweeted about efforts by House Republicans to tackle inefficiencies within the federal government. Van Duyne contrasted these efforts with what she described as Democratic complaints regarding Elon Musk and his team. "House Republicans are eliminating waste, fraud and abuse that has festered in our federal government for far too long. All Democrats can do is complain about Elon Musk and his team of brilliant engineers, who have discovered so much wasteful and fraudulent spending in the last…"

In another tweet at 21:32 UTC, Van Duyne criticized the Biden Administration for alleged misuse of taxpayer funds to benefit political allies. She called for criminal investigations into these actions while addressing former Attorney General Pam Bondi directly for assistance. "Vast embezzlement of taxpayer money to pay off political friends is a hallmark of the Biden Administration. This is beyond waste, fraud, and abuse. There need to be criminal investigations. @AGPamBondi, please help!"
