Congressman Morgan Luttrell, representing Texas’ 8th district, shared his recent legislative activities through a series of tweets. On February 13, 2025, he highlighted his vote in favor of two significant bills and expressed curiosity about the opposition from House Democrats on one of them.

On February 13, 2025, Congressman Luttrell tweeted: "I just voted YES on @RepCiscomani’s Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act, which imposes criminal penalties, forces deportation, and blocks eligibility for immigration benefits if an illegal immigrant is found guilty of evading border patrol." The tweet indicates Luttrell's support for stricter measures against illegal immigrants who evade border patrol.

Later that day at 16:04 UTC, he questioned the stance of House Democrats regarding the bill by tweeting: "Would be interested to know which part of this bill Democrats disagree with since 155 House Dems just voted *against* it " This reflects his interest in understanding the opposition's perspective on the proposed legislation.

At 19:11 UTC on the same day, Luttrell addressed national security concerns by promoting another legislative effort. He stated: "The threat of terrorism has not disappeared — it has evolved. The Syria Terrorism Threat Assessment Act ensures DHS does its job to identify threats, close vulnerabilities, and strengthen counterterrorism efforts." This tweet underscores his commitment to enhancing counterterrorism strategies.
