Rep. Nikki Budzinski, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Illinois' 13th district, has shared several updates on her activities and legislative initiatives via social media. Her posts provide insights into her ongoing work and priorities.
On February 19, 2025, Rep. Budzinski expressed enthusiasm about visiting the Venice Rail Yard with fellow Representative Wesley Bell to discuss infrastructure improvements for St. Louis and the Metro East area. She noted the importance of these developments in a tweet: "It was great to visit the Venice Rail Yard with @RepWesleyBellMO to talk about infrastructure improvements for St. Louis and the Metro East!"
The following day, February 20, 2025, she announced that her team would be conducting mobile office hours to assist constituents with various issues such as mail delivery and passport problems. She invited people to participate in this initiative through another tweet: "My team is hitting the road for mobile office hours today! Stop by to learn how we can help you with mail delivery, passport issues, and more."
Later on February 20, Rep. Budzinski addressed concerns over pharmaceutical pricing practices in a post advocating for her BLOCKING Act. This legislation aims to prevent Big Pharma from maintaining high prices through "parking exclusivity," thereby facilitating access to affordable medications: "For too long, Big Pharma has manipulated the market to keep prices high for everyday Americans. My BLOCKING Act would end the unfair practice of 'parking exclusivity' and help bring more low-cost drug options onto the market."
