Steny Hoyer, a long-serving U.S. Congressman representing Maryland’s 5th district, recently addressed several issues through his social media platform. The tweets highlighted various political and social matters, reflecting Hoyer's ongoing commitment to public service.

On March 18, 2025, Hoyer expressed concern over employment practices involving high-profile figures. He stated: "The saddest part of Julie's story is that it is not unique." He emphasized the role of the courts in holding Donald Trump and Elon Musk accountable for "illegally firing thousands of probationary employees." Hoyer reassured followers of continued efforts to protect federal employees.

Later that day, at 16:04 UTC, Hoyer turned his attention to healthcare policy.
