Chip Roy, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 21st District since 2019, has recently shared his views on legislative developments through a series of tweets. Born in Bethesda, Maryland, and residing in Austin, Roy holds a BS from the University of Virginia and a JD from the University of Texas-Austin.

On March 20, 2025, Rep. Chip Roy Press Office tweeted about a significant legislative development: "Massive win for common sense." The tweet announced that Rep. Roy's HR 22, known as the SAVE Act, would mandate proof of citizenship to register to vote in federal elections. The post emphasized the necessity to "SAVE our elections from non-citizens voting."

In another tweet posted later on the same day at 16:58 UTC, Rep. Chip Roy highlighted changes under the Trump administration regarding immigration policy: "It’s a new day in America." The tweet stated that the administration had nearly ended "the mass RELEASE of illegal aliens into the U.S." It further advocated for Congress passing #HR2 to make these policies permanent.
