Rep. Nikki Budzinski, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Illinois’ 13th district, has shared several updates and opinions through her social media platform. Budzinski, who took office in 2023 after replacing Rodney Davis, provides information on weather alerts, postal service concerns, and opportunities for constituents to stay informed.
On March 15, 2025, Rep. Budzinski issued a weather advisory for residents of Illinois' 13th district via Twitter: "Stay safe IL13! Right now this is just a tornado WATCH, but in the event of a tornado warning seek shelter and stay away from windows!" This message was posted at 01:45:30 UTC.
Later that day at 16:50:53 UTC, she addressed potential changes to the United States Postal Service under President Trump's administration. In her tweet, she stated: "Purging 10,000 postal employees is step one of President Trump’s effort to turn the USPS into a private business venture - which will lead to post office closures, delivery delays & higher prices for everyday Americans." She mentioned leading a group of colleagues in opposition to these actions.
In another update on March 15 at 21:11:08 UTC, Rep. Budzinski invited constituents to subscribe to her newsletter for ongoing updates about her work in Central and Southern Illinois with the message: "Want to keep updated on how I'm fighting for Central and Southern Illinois?
