Troy E. Nehls, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas's 22nd district since 2021, has been vocal on social media about issues concerning national security and immigration. Nehls, who succeeded Pete Olson in Congress, has expressed strong opinions on these topics through a series of tweets.
On March 19, 2025, Nehls encouraged key figures within the FBI by tweeting: "Go get ‘em @FBIDirectorKash and @FBIDDBongino ". This tweet demonstrates his support for the FBI leadership.
Later that day, he addressed the topic of illegal immigration with a critical stance towards Democrats. He stated: "Democrats are fighting to keep violent illegal alien gang members in our communities. Republicans want to get these bad hombres off the streets and out of our country. That’s the difference." This tweet underscores his perspective on party differences regarding immigration policies.
The following day, March 20, 2025, Nehls shared optimistic news about border security measures under new presidential leadership. He tweeted: "Criminal illegal aliens are being arrested. Illegal border crossings are down 96% from the all-time high of the Biden Administration. Border Patrol Agents are empowered. All we needed was a new President. We are so back!" This reflects his approval of current efforts to manage illegal border crossings.
