Lloyd Doggett, a long-serving U.S. Congressman representing Texas' 37th district, has been vocal on various issues through his social media presence. Known for his legislative work and public statements, Doggett has addressed topics ranging from federal workforce reductions to animal welfare and Social Security.

On March 6, 2025, Doggett criticized the Trump administration's reduction of the federal workforce, stating that "With Trump/DOGE slashing the federal workforce, Trump has FIRED more military veterans than any President in history, with even more unjustified terminations ahead." He expressed concern over the GOP's response, noting their support or silence on the issue.

The following day, March 7, 2025, Doggett highlighted his commitment to animal welfare by sharing that he received a perfect score from a prominent organization. He tweeted: "Our compassion and humanity should always extend to animals. I'm pleased to receive another perfect 100+ score from @humaneactfund for my legislative efforts to end animal cruelty and abuse."

Later that same day, Doggett addressed inaccuracies in former President Trump's address regarding Social Security. He pointed out discrepancies in Trump's statements by tweeting: "I joined colleagues to highlight the many lies and imaginary numbers in Trump’s address." He emphasized that Social Security payments are largely accurate.
