Congressman Greg Casar, representing Texas’ 35th district since 2023, has been vocal on social media regarding recent political developments. Casar, who replaced Lloyd Doggett in Congress and is a University of Virginia alumnus, has shared his perspectives on economic policies and political actions affecting American citizens.
On May 19, 2025, Congressman Casar expressed concern over the financial struggles faced by many Americans. He stated that “The bottom 60% of US households can’t afford the basic costs of living.” He criticized former President Trump and Republican leaders for their approach to economic policy, particularly highlighting cuts to Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP. Casar suggested that tax cuts for billionaires were prioritized over the basic needs of Americans.
In another tweet posted on May 20, 2025, Casar addressed legal actions against a fellow lawmaker. He remarked that “The baseless charges against Congresswoman McIver for simply doing her job should send a chill down the spine of every American.” He raised concerns about potential abuses of power by the president in targeting elected officials.
Later on May 20, Congressman Casar called out Republican members of Congress regarding healthcare priorities. He urged them to consider the impact of their policies by stating that “Every Republican member of Congress should have to look into the eyes of people who count on Medicaid and explain why their health care is less important than tax cuts for billionaires.”
Greg Casar continues to be an active voice in Congress as he addresses issues related to economic inequality and political accountability.
