Morgan Luttrell, a Congressman representing Texas' 8th district since 2023, has recently addressed several issues through his social media platform. Born in Houston, Texas, in 1975 and residing in Magnolia, Luttrell graduated from Sam Houston State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in 2000. His recent statements on various topics reflect his active engagement in legislative matters.

On March 11, 2025, Congressman Morgan Luttrell expressed concern about the rapid spread of the New World screwworm. He emphasized the potential impact on livestock and wildlife if proactive measures are not taken. In his tweet, he urged the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to intensify eradication efforts. "The New World screwworm is spreading fast, and if we don’t get ahead of it, our livestock and wildlife will pay the price. I’m calling on @USDA to ramp up eradication efforts."

Later that day, Luttrell voiced support for Secretary Rubio's initiatives regarding national security concerns. He advocated for the deportation of non-citizen students who openly support terrorist organizations such as Hamas. "America will never be a safe haven for terrorist supporters. I fully back Secretary Rubio’s efforts to deport non-citizen students who openly support Hamas or any other terrorist organization."

On March 12, 2025, Luttrell announced the release of a new podcast episode by the Republican Study Committee (RSC). The podcast features discussions among three Texans committed to promoting conservative values. Luttrell joined RSC Chairman Rep Pfluger and Rep Ronny Jackson to discuss their shared mission and even included their predictions for the Final Four basketball tournament. " New @RepublicanStudy podcast is out NOW! Three Texans, one mission: fighting for conservative values. I joined RSC Chairman @RepPfluger and @RepRonnyJackson to break it all down — including our Final Four predictions."
