Angie Craig, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Minnesota’s 2nd district since 2019, shared her thoughts and activities through a series of tweets on social media.

On January 24, 2025, Angie Craig addressed the issue of access to healthcare facilities, emphasizing that individuals obstructing access are not engaging in lawful protest. She stated: "People who block patients from accessing health care facilities are not peacefully protesting. They are breaking the law."

The following day, January 25, 2025, she announced the commencement of her office's annual "Valentines for Vets" program. In her tweet, she encouraged participation by sending Valentine's Day cards to veterans: "This week, my office kicked off our annual Valentines for Vets program. Join us in spreading the love to Minnesota veterans this Valentine’s Day by dropping off or mailing your cards to my Eagan office by February 8th."

Later on January 25, 2025, Craig reflected on a previous call she made in Congress for the release of Naama Levy, a hostage taken by Hamas terrorists. She expressed relief and support upon Levy's reunion with her family: "A year ago, I spoke on the House floor to demand the release of Naama Levy – a young woman who was taken hostage by Hamas terrorists on October 7th, 2023. Today, Naama was reunited with her family. My heart is with Naama & her loved ones as they welcome her home."
