Angie Craig U.S. House of Representatives from Minnesota's 2nd district | Official U.S. House Headshot
U.S. Representative Angie Craig, who serves Minnesota’s 2nd district, used her social media platform on October 1, 2025, to address ongoing political developments in Washington and share a message with her constituents.
In a post made at 19:31 UTC, Craig stated, "My office was open yesterday. It’s open today. And it will be open every day through the Republican shutdown." At 20:12 UTC the same day, she addressed health care policy concerns, writing, "If Republicans don’t work with Democrats to extend ACA premium tax credits – Americans’ insurance premiums will rise by 114%. Republicans would rather shut down the government than work with us to lower your health care costs." Later that evening at 20:49 UTC, Craig posted a message marking Yom Kippur for those observing in Minnesota: "To all those in Minnesota who observe: I’m wishing you a peaceful and reflective Yom Kippur and a blessed fast."
Angie Craig has represented Minnesota’s 2nd congressional district since 2019 after succeeding Jason Lewis. She is currently based in Prior Lake and was born in West Helena, Arkansas in 1972. Craig earned her Bachelor of Arts from the University of Memphis in 1994.
Her recent statements come amid heightened tensions over potential government shutdowns and debates regarding Affordable Care Act premium tax credits—a key issue affecting insurance premiums for many Americans.
