Rep. Claudia Tenney, representing New York’s 24th district in the U.S. Congress, has taken to social media, expressing her stance on various issues. A longstanding figure in politics, having also served in the New York State Assembly, Tenney addressed concerns related to antisemitism, judicial appointments, and foreign influence in U.S. universities through her recent tweets.

On March 27, 2025, Tenney underscored the importance of standing against antisemitism in educational institutions. Referring to a summit she attended, she stated, "We cannot stay silent as hatred from pro-Hamas mobs continues to threaten Jewish students." She highlighted her engagement with student leaders at the Rise & Respond: Global Student Summit Against Antisemitism, where she shared her efforts to support the Jewish community.

In a tweet dated March 28, 2025, Tenney commented on the judicial system's role in political affairs, noting that "92% of Trump's 64 injunctions were issued by partisan Democratic-appointed judges." She criticized what she perceives as a coordinated effort by the left to obstruct the implementation of former President Trump's administration's agenda, promising that action would be taken by the House GOP.

Later, on the same day, Tenney highlighted the issue of foreign interference in American higher education, revealing that "Between 2014 and 2019, 350 universities received nearly $18 million combined from foreign countries." She referenced the recent passage of H.R. 1048, the DETERRENT Act, by the House GOP, aimed at safeguarding universities from such influences.
