Congresswoman Jen Kiggans, representing Virginia's 2nd district since 2023, has recently shared a series of tweets addressing critical issues. Her focus ranges from the opioid crisis to veterans' care, reflecting her legislative priorities and commitment to her constituents.

On February 6, 2025, Congresswoman Kiggans highlighted the severity of the fentanyl crisis in Virginia. She stated that "In 2023, roughly 1,700 Virginians lost their lives to fentanyl overdoses... We must pass the HALT Fentanyl Act today to stop this deadly drug from infiltrating our communities and devastating families. This bill will save lives!"

Later that day, she posted another tweet indicating an upcoming event or announcement with a simple message: "Happening soon...! " on February 6, 2025.

In a subsequent tweet on February 6, 2025, Congresswoman Kiggans reiterated her stance on veterans' care by stating: "I’ve said it before and I will say it again — partisan games have no place when veterans’ care is on the line."
