Representative Dan Crenshaw, who has consistently secured his seat in Congress with significant margins in recent elections, recently shared a series of posts on social media addressing current political topics and policies. His comments touch on the Biden administration’s actions, comparisons to past administrations, and ongoing debates over environmental regulations.
On December 9, 2025, Crenshaw highlighted what he described as a shift in public and media response to anti-trafficking policies by referencing former President Joe Biden’s record. He wrote: “Oh and here’s Joe Biden in the ’90s proposing the exact same kind of strikes against traffickers. No outrage back then. No op-eds. No faux moral panic. So what changed?” (December 9, 2025).
Later that day, Crenshaw commented on Democratic criticism of President Donald Trump’s administration: “I’d say things are going pretty well under President Trump… The only things Democrats can find to complain about are his treatment of cartels and… pennies.” (December 9, 2025).
On December 11, 2025, Crenshaw addressed environmental regulations impacting American communities: “You shouldn’t need China’s permission to build in America. But thanks to Biden-era EPA rules, American communities are being punished for air pollution that doesn’t even come from us. Standards set by the last administration still count foreign pollution against U.S.” (December 11, 2025).
Crenshaw’s remarks come as part of an ongoing discussion about U.S. environmental policy and international standards affecting domestic industries. The Environmental Protection Agency has faced scrutiny over how it attributes air pollution from foreign sources when determining compliance with federal air quality standards.
Since first being elected in 2018—defeating Todd Litton—Crenshaw has won successive re-election campaigns by notable margins: overcoming Sima Ladjevardian in 2020 with 55.6% of the vote; Robin Fulford in 2022 with nearly two-thirds support; and Peter Filler in 2024 with approximately 65.7% of votes cast.
