Rep. Don Beyer, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Virginia's 8th district since 2015, has expressed his views on recent political developments through a series of tweets. Beyer, who succeeded Jim Moran and resides in Alexandria, has been vocal about issues concerning fiscal policy and environmental protection.
On March 13, 2025, Rep. Beyer criticized the Republican party's approach to fiscal management. He stated that "Republicans are already planning to violate their own spending bill and it hasn't even passed," questioning why anyone would support such a measure.
Later that day, Beyer addressed environmental concerns, particularly criticizing actions taken by the Trump administration. He highlighted that "as American communities suffer the devastating impacts of climate change," vital efforts to maintain clean air and water are being dismantled for the benefit of oil and gas interests.
In another tweet posted on March 13, 2025, Beyer joined forces with Sen. Markey and other colleagues to oppose climate policies from the White House. He emphasized that "the EPA’s responsibility is to protect the American public" rather than serve fossil fuel interests.
