Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, representing Texas’ 30th district, took to social media on April 3, 2025, to share her perspectives on significant national issues. Known for her tenure in Congress since replacing Eddie Bernice Johnson in 2023, Crockett's recent statements address both legislative initiatives and critiques of current economic policies.
On April 3, 2025, Rep. Crockett announced legislative efforts to enhance public understanding of abortion care. She stated, "Too many people are being misled or left in the dark when it comes to abortion care. That’s why @RepDanGoldman and I re-introduce the Abortion Care Awareness Act of 2025. This bill would launch a national campaign to make sure folks know their rights, where to get care, and how." This initiative aims to promote awareness about reproductive health rights and accessible services.
Later the same day, Crockett criticized economic policies attributed to Donald Trump, saying "Trump isn’t just playing with fire — he’s lighting the whole damn thing up. Ruining our economy, raising costs for everyday working Americans, causing stock markets to fall, and slapping tariffs on 185 countries." She concluded with the assertion that such actions do not reflect effective leadership.
In a subsequent post, Crockett further commented on tariff policies, humorously indicating their seemingly misplaced targets. She posted, "So let me get this straight—Trump hit places with NO people and NO trade with the U.S. with tariffs… and it’s literally just penguins out there? PENGUINS???"
