Congresswoman Jen Kiggans, representing Virginia's 2nd district since 2023, shared her perspectives on several issues through social media posts dated March 26, 2025. Her tweets addressed topics ranging from naval investments to veteran healthcare.
On the morning of March 26, Kiggans spoke at the Aircraft Carrier Industrial Base Coalition.
