Nikki Budzinski, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Illinois' 13th district since 2023, has been vocal on social media regarding recent political developments. In a series of tweets, she addresses issues related to education and economic policies under President Trump's administration.
On March 4, 2025, Budzinski highlighted the impact of Trump's policies on education by bringing attention to Lisa Quandt, a special education teacher from Belleville. She stated that Quandt exemplifies how "Trump’s attacks on the Department of Education are hurting working families." Budzinski expressed her honor in having Quandt as her guest at the president's Joint Address to Congress.
In another tweet posted on March 5, 2025, Budzinski shared her expectations for President Trump's address to Congress. She emphasized her desire to hear about plans for reducing costs for families, pointing out that "since he took office on January 20, prices have only gone up." She urged Trump to focus on alleviating burdens for working families rather than exacerbating them.
Following President Trump's address to Congress later that day, Budzinski issued a statement regarding his speech. While the content of her statement was not detailed in the tweet itself, she directed followers to read it via an external link: "My statement on President Trump's address to Congress "
