Rep. Gerry Connolly, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Virginia's 11th district, has been active on social media discussing key issues facing the nation. Connolly, who succeeded Tom Davis in 2009 and previously served on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, often addresses topics concerning government funding and public services.
On March 12, 2025, Rep. Connolly expressed support for a temporary funding measure in Congress. "House Democrats are ready and willing to vote for a four-week funding extension that stops harmful cuts, keeps government open, and allows Congress to reach a funding agreement." He emphasized readiness to collaborate with others in Congress to prevent detrimental budget cuts.
The following day, March 13, Connolly celebrated a legislative victory he deemed beneficial for the American public. "This is a massive win for the American people, who deserve a government that serves them and not the whims of a couple petty billionaires." He credited his colleagues at OversightDems for their efforts and vowed continued advocacy.
Later that same day, Connolly highlighted concerns about equitable access to mail delivery services. "Reliable mail delivery can’t just be reserved for MAGA supporters and Tesla owners." His remarks underscored his commitment to ensuring fair distribution of postal services across different demographics.
