Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne, who represents Texas’ 24th district in the U.S. Congress, posted a series of updates on May 7, 2026, detailing her recent activities and policy priorities.
In a post published at 17:51 UTC, Van Duyne highlighted her efforts to address visa fraud in North Texas, stating: “It was great to join @SaraGonzalesTX in the @BlazeTV studio to talk about the steps I’m taking with my North Texas colleagues to urge the Trump Administration to investigate the sweeping H-1B visa fraud happening right in our backyard. This kind of fraud directly hurts American”.
Later that day, at 20:13 UTC, she discussed economic issues following a visit with a local business: “I had a wonderful visit with ASCO Equipment in Euless! I enjoyed meeting with their team to discuss how the Working Families Tax Cuts are delivering real stability, creating growth opportunities for Texas equipment dealers. We also talked about the shortage of equipment”.
At 22:18 UTC on May 7, Van Duyne shared details from another meeting focused on health care policy: “It was great to meet with Dr. Goodman, President of the @GoodmanInst, here in Dallas. We had a productive conversation about innovative approaches to lowering health care costs, expanding access, and HSA reforms.”
