Rep. Chip Roy, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 21st District since 2019, recently made several public statements via social media regarding legislative actions and immigration issues. These statements reflect his ongoing political positions and concerns about federal spending and immigration policy.

On March 11, 2025, Rep. Chip Roy commented on the passage of a continuing resolution by the House. In his statement, he said, "Today, I voted to effectively freeze spending levels for six more months and to give runway for the Trump Administration to continue its efforts to root out wasteful spending." This indicates his support for fiscal measures aimed at controlling government expenditure while allowing the administration time to address inefficiencies.

The following day, on March 12, 2025, Rep. Roy addressed immigration statistics in the United States. He noted that there are "53 MILLION foreign-born nationals in the U.S., making them 15% of our population." He emphasized that these figures are unprecedented in American history and called for a reduction in immigration levels.

Later on March 12, Rep. Roy provided additional information related to his previous tweet through another post: "MORE: https://t.co/231wfqE53j". The link suggests further elaboration or supporting details concerning his stance on immigration.
