Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne, representing Texas' 24th District, has recently shared insights on significant national topics through her online platform. Beth Van Duyne has been serving in Congress since 2021, succeeding Kenny Marchant. Born in Ithaca, New York, in 1970, Van Duyne currently resides in Irving, Texas, after graduating from Cornell University in 1995 with a BA.

On April 14, 2025, Congresswoman Van Duyne expressed her appreciation "from representatives of Toyota of North America about repealing the Biden-era Zero-Emission Rule that supports California's ban on the sale of new gasoline-powered cars by 2035." The zero-emission rule she refers to aligns with California's environmental policies aiming for cleaner air by shifting to electric vehicles.

Later that day, Congresswoman Van Duyne proclaimed "The era of outsourcing is over, and American manufacturing is back." She highlighted NVIDIA's commitment to building AI supercomputers and chips domestically as part of the U.S.'s expansion as a technological hub.

In another update on the same day, she applauded "@SecDef strengthening our ties to Panama and pushing back on the Chinese influence in our hemisphere." According to Van Duyne, these moves represent an embodiment of effective American leadership in international affairs and defense.

Van Duyne's statements reflect her focus on economic growth, technological advancement, and foreign policy, aligning with her representation of Texas' 24th Congressional District since her initial election to Congress.
