Rep. Becca Balint, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Vermont's at-large district, has been actively voicing her concerns on national issues through social media. Her recent posts have highlighted critical topics such as housing and international relations.

On November 21, 2024, Rep. Balint emphasized the urgent need for housing to become a central issue in national politics. She stated, "Housing NEEDS to be a part of the national political conversation. I introduced a sweeping housing bill because people are losing hope that they'll ever own a home or comfortably afford rent. We need to reimagine housing. Every American is feeling the effects of this crisis."

Later that day, she addressed international concerns regarding U.S. foreign policy and military aid. In her tweet from November 21, 2024, she noted that "Yesterday, 19 senators voted to block the sale of more offensive weapons to the Netanyahu government. The United States cannot continue to fund this war that has brought unimaginable death and destruction to Gaza."

In another post on November 21, 2024, Rep. Balint directed followers to learn more about her legislative efforts by reading about her Community Housing Act: "Read more about my Community Housing Act."
