Rep. Wesley Hunt Press Office, representing Texas’s 38th District in the U.S. Congress since 2023, posted a series of statements on September 8, 2025, addressing crime and law enforcement issues as well as media coverage surrounding recent events.
In a post published at 17:01 UTC, the account stated: “Decarlos Brown was arrested 13 times, presenting 13 chances to incarcerate him. He should never have been allowed the opportunity to kill this woman on the subway. The mainstream media is notably silent about this incident. Why is that?”
Later that day at 17:09 UTC, the office commented on remarks attributed to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker regarding former President Donald Trump and public safety in Chicago: “MSNBC reports that JB Pritzker stated online that Trump is declaring war on Chicago. Cleaning up crime and establishing safer communities for Chicagoans is not declaring war; it’s about declaring safety!”
At 19:36 UTC, another post referenced a Supreme Court decision concerning immigration enforcement in California: “Another victory for the Trump administration: the Supreme Court has ruled that ICE raids are to resume in California. Law and order will be restored!”
Wesley Hunt has held his congressional seat since winning election in 2022 and was re-elected in 2024 with over sixty percent of the vote each time. Born in Houston in 1981, Hunt continues to reside there while serving his district.
