Tenney, who replaced Anthony Brindisi in 2021 and previously served in the New York State Assembly from 2011 to 2016, addresses economic concerns, voting legislation, and border security.
On November 2, 2024, Tenney criticized the Biden administration's handling of the economy. She stated that "Prices have risen by 20.2% under the Biden administration, causing Americans to spend over $13,000 more annually to buy the basics compared to three years ago." She emphasized that "paying for everyday goods has become nearly impossible" under current policies.
Later that day, she expressed support for President Trump regarding voting regulations. In her tweet at 20:11 UTC, she declared "I stand with President Trump & agree that if you vote illegally, you should go to jail!" Tenney highlighted her role as a co-sponsor of the JAIL for Alien Voters Act, which aims to impose penalties of up to five years in prison or a $10,000 fine for illegal voting activities.
On November 3, 2024, Tenney addressed border security issues. She criticized Vice President Kamala Harris' approach as Border Czar by stating "Border Czar Harris' negligence has put all our communities at risk." She called for immediate deportation of what she termed "dangerous criminals" and stressed the need to "SECURE OUR BORDERS."
