Rep. Veronica Escobar, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 16th district, has shared her thoughts on recent policy changes via social media. Her remarks provide a critical perspective on developments since the inauguration of President Trump.
On March 5, 2025, Rep. Escobar commented on what she described as "The Golden Age of America (n.) - the six weeks since Trump was inaugurated, characterized by increased taxes on Americans, betrayal of our allies, and record egg prices". Her statement highlights concerns about domestic economic policies and international relations under the current administration.
In another post from the same day, Rep. Escobar addressed new trade policies affecting small businesses. She noted that "That 'record optimism' for small businesses came crashing down today when you implemented taxes on imports from Mexico and Canada that WILL hurt them and their customers." This tweet underscores potential negative impacts on businesses due to recent import tax decisions.
