Joaquin Castro, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas' 20th district, has been actively engaging with his constituents and addressing national issues through social media. His recent posts provide insight into his activities and views on legislative matters.

On March 25, 2025, Castro announced an upcoming town hall meeting in San Antonio, where he will be joined by State Representative Trey Martinez Fischer and Mayor Ron Nirenberg. The event is scheduled for Saturday at 10 AM, and the congressman encouraged community members to "RSVP now!"

Later that day, Castro expressed gratitude towards the Center for Effective Lawmaking for recognizing his efforts in the legislative process. He acknowledged the challenges involved and credited his staff's dedication over the years: "I want to recognize my staff for their hard work throughout the years on behalf of Texans and all Americans."

On March 26, 2025, Castro shared concerns from a House Intelligence Committee hearing where he questioned national security officials about classified communications. He criticized their inability to admit to using secure messaging apps improperly: "This is ridiculous, they know better, and they are lying to the American people."
