Congressman Troy E. Nehls, representing Texas’ 22nd district in the U.S. Congress since 2021, has recently shared his views on social media regarding cryptocurrency, political achievements, and media accuracy. Born in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, Nehls is a Liberty University graduate who resides in Richmond.
On March 11, 2025, Congressman Nehls referenced Bitcoin's limited supply with a tweet stating " / 21 Million $BTC #Bitcoin @saylor". This suggests an endorsement or interest in the cryptocurrency's finite nature.
The following day, March 12, 2025, he expressed support for former President Donald Trump by tweeting "President Trump is delivering real results for the American people. We just keep winning with President Trump back in office." This indicates his approval of Trump's leadership and policies.
Later on March 12, Nehls addressed claims made by The Houston Chronicle regarding budget cuts to the Army Corps of Engineers. He stated that "The Houston Chronicle doubles down on its claim that the CR 'cuts' $1.4 billion of the Army Corps of Engineers budget, even after my office corrected them on this falsehood." He clarified that there were no cuts to funding for the Army Corps of Engineers and attributed previous misunderstandings to repurposed IIJA balances.
