Congressman Troy E. Nehls, representing Texas’ 22nd district since 2021, has recently taken to social media to express his concerns on several issues affecting the nation. Born in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin in 1968, Nehls now resides in Richmond and is a graduate of Liberty University.
On July 1, 2025, Nehls highlighted a significant increase in assaults against ICE agents, stating “Assaults against ICE agents are UP nearly 700%. How does this not outrage every American?” His comment raises questions about public safety and law enforcement challenges facing immigration officers.
In a tweet dated July 2, 2025, Congressman Nehls addressed fiscal policies related to Congress’s revenue generation efforts under President Trump’s mandate. He expressed disapproval over a Senate decision by noting “Congress was instructed to generate revenue to deliver on President Trump’s mandate. Yet, the Senate gutted a provision that would raise the tax to 21% on endowment profits, leaving billions of dollars in revenue on the table. Why is the Senate trying to protect these elite?” This remark underscores ongoing debates over taxation and economic policy.
On July 3, 2025, Nehls commented positively on recent economic developments by sharing “The U.S. added 147,000 new jobs in June. The unemployment rate fell to 4.1%. Our economy is booming. President Trump’s policies are working!” This statement highlights perceived successes of current economic strategies and job growth statistics.
Troy Nehls continues his service as a congressman with an active voice on social media platforms regarding key national issues.
