Angie Craig, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Minnesota’s 2nd district since 2019, shared her recent legislative efforts through a series of tweets on December 12, 2024. Craig has been active in addressing issues affecting small businesses, healthcare access, and support for family farmers.

In a tweet posted at 01:44:50 UTC, Angie Craig emphasized the importance of small businesses to local economies. She stated, "#MN02’s small businesses are the driving force behind our local economies. That’s why I wrote the bill to cut federal taxes for small businesses and small business owners in Minnesota & nationwide."

Later that day, at 18:42:39 UTC, she addressed healthcare accessibility issues across Minnesota. Craig tweeted, "Every single Minnesotan, regardless of zip code, deserves reliable access to high-quality health care. That’s why I’m working across the aisle to help connect Minnesota’s rural communities with the mental health care they need."

In another tweet from 20:34:29 UTC, Craig highlighted challenges faced by family farmers due to extreme weather patterns and rising production costs. She urged congressional leaders for disaster relief support by stating, "Extreme weather patterns & rising production costs have left Minnesota family farmers struggling to break even. I’m urging @SpeakerMikeJohnson & @SenSchumer to include disaster relief in year-end legislation to get Minnesota family farmers the support they need."
