On November 15, 2024, Rep. Balint expressed her concerns regarding the humanitarian situation in Gaza. She stated that "The current flow of aid into Gaza is still nowhere near acceptable. The United States cannot continue to fund this war that has brought unimaginable death and destruction to Gaza. Israel must urgently work to surge aid into Gaza and take steps to immediately end the war."
The following day, November 16, 2024, she highlighted the importance of antitrust enforcement in promoting economic fairness. In her words: "People understand that competition lowers prices. Strong antitrust enforcement fights corporate power so that regular families have a fighting chance to build wealth and do more than just survive."
