Rep. Dan Crenshaw, who has been serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas’ 2nd district since 2019, shared a series of tweets expressing his views on various subjects. Crenshaw, born in Aberdeen, Scotland, and a graduate of Tufts University, currently resides in Humble.
On February 6, 2025, Rep. Crenshaw commemorated President Reagan’s birthday with a tweet celebrating his legacy.

On February 7, 2025, Crenshaw announced that the House passed the HALT Fentanyl Act—a bill he co-sponsored—aimed at curbing illicit fentanyl trafficking and supporting law enforcement efforts.

And I think the Trump administration agrees. That’s why a temporary pause on non-essential spending by USAID, to review every item is a no brainer.”
