Angie Craig, representing Minnesota's 2nd district in the U.S. Congress since 2019, has voiced her concerns on recent political and social issues through a series of tweets. Craig, who succeeded Jason Lewis, expressed concern regarding national economic policies, student safety, and voting rights for female members of Congress.

On April 1, 2025, Craig highlighted economic challenges stemming from tariffs, stating, "On-again-off-again tariffs are throwing our economy into a tailspin. American businesses & family farmers are being shut out of markets with no way to plan for the future. Costs are going up for producers & consumers alike. This Administration promised to lower costs, & they."

Craig took a stance on student safety within educational institutions on the same day at 16:37 UTC, remarking, "MN students should feel safe at school. Ambushing and detaining students on our university campuses with no transparency and due process is unacceptable. I’m pushing for answers."

Later that day, Craig criticized recent votes by Speaker Johnson and other House Republicans, stating, "Speaker Johnson and 205 additional House Republicans just voted to make it harder for new moms in Congress to vote. Party of family values, my ass." The tweet reflects Craig's disapproval of legislative actions affecting new mothers in Congress.
