Nikki Budzinski, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Illinois' 13th district, shared her views on various issues through a series of tweets on January 23, 2025. Her posts touched upon topics ranging from industry consolidation to birthright citizenship and her leadership roles in congressional committees.
In a tweet posted at 16:53 UTC, Budzinski addressed the issue of industry consolidation, stating that "The consolidation of industries like grocery chains, steelmaking and pharmacies is driving up prices by reducing competition. I'm ready to hold corporations accountable and lower prices for working families." She emphasized her commitment to holding corporations accountable and reducing prices for working families.
Later that day, at 21:40 UTC, she commented on a judicial decision regarding birthright citizenship. She expressed her approval by tweeting "This judge made the right decision. Birthright citizenship is a constitutional cornerstone. Rejecting this fundamental principle only takes us backwards, not forwards."
At 21:58 UTC, Budzinski announced her return to leadership positions within two key congressional committees. She tweeted "I’m excited to return to @HouseAgDems and @VetAffairsDems in a leadership position for my second term! I'll keep working to uplift rural communities, negotiate a bipartisan Farm Bill and ensure our nation’s veterans have access to their hard-earned benefits." This reflects her ongoing commitment to agricultural and veterans' affairs.
