Rep. Claudia Tenney, a member of the U.S. Congress representing New York’s 24th district, shared her views on several critical issues through a series of tweets on March 12, 2025. These posts addressed matters ranging from domestic pharmaceutical production to national security and unemployment fraud.

In her first tweet at 19:13 UTC, Rep. Tenney emphasized the importance of reinforcing America's supply chains by bringing them back to domestic soil. She highlighted her introduction of the PILLS Act, designed to "incentivize businesses to produce critical medications here in the U.S." The aim is to prevent supply chain disruptions, enhance pharmaceutical security, and generate American jobs. "We must bring our supply chains back to America."

Later that day at 20:08 UTC, she addressed concerns about Mahmoud Khalil, whom she identified as a Hamas sympathizer celebrating a terrorist organization responsible for the deaths of Americans. Rep. Tenney called for Senate Democrats to demand Khalil's deportation rather than his freedom, stating unequivocally that he does not belong on American soil. "Mahmoud Khalil is a Hamas sympathizer who celebrates a terrorist organization that has murdered Americans."

In another tweet posted at 21:58 UTC, Rep. Tenney discussed financial losses during the pandemic due to unemployment insurance fraud amounting between $100 and $135 billion. She advocated for the Pandemic Unemployment Fraud Enforcement Act as a measure to hold fraudsters accountable and prevent future fraudulent activities related to unemployment benefits."Between $100 & $135 BILLION of unemployment insurance benefits were stolen during the pandemic."
