Angie Craig, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Minnesota's 2nd district since 2019, shared several updates on social media regarding various topics on May 20, 2025.

In recognition of EMS Week, Angie Craig expressed her gratitude towards emergency medical service professionals. She posted: "This EMS week, we recognize all of the EMS professionals who show up every day for our communities. To all these heroes, thank you for your compassion, dedication and selflessness." The message was shared at 13:38 UTC.

Later in the day, at 14:55 UTC, Craig voiced her concerns over a budget bill proposed by her Republican colleagues. She stated that if passed, "our national debt could be twice our GDP in the next three decades." She criticized the legislation as "reckless," arguing it does not address wasteful spending but rather poses a risk of economic crisis.

At 20:21 UTC on the same day, Craig made a brief announcement regarding charges against another congressional representative. She directed followers to further information via a link with her statement on what she described as "the politically motivated charges against Rep. McIver."

Craig has been serving Minnesota’s 2nd District since replacing Jason Lewis in 2019. Born in West Helena, Arkansas in 1972 and currently residing in Prior Lake, she graduated from the University of Memphis with a BA in 1994.
