Angie Craig, currently serving as a U.S. Congresswoman representing Minnesota's 2nd District, shared several updates via social media on January 28 and 29, 2025. These posts covered a range of topics from celebrating local achievements to addressing community concerns.

On January 28, Craig acknowledged the milestone anniversary of a local radio station, stating: "Happy 20th birthday to one of Minnesota’s most beloved radio stations: The Current! Here’s to two decades of bringing Minnesota music to the masses and many more to come."

Later that day, she raised concerns about funding for law enforcement in her district. She reported: "We have received word from two #MN02 cities that they have been notified by DOJ that their COPS grants to local law enforcement have been put on hold. Withholding critical funding approved by Congress to hire police officers makes #MN02 communities less safe."

On January 29, Craig discussed her engagement with educational initiatives in Rosemount. She wrote: "Today, I had my first meeting with my Special Education Advisory Board in Rosemount. Special ed programs change the lives of students in #MN02 & I’ll never stop fighting to ensure special educators & paraprofessionals have the resources they need to keep up their important work."
