Troy A. Carter, a Congressman serving Louisiana's 2nd district, recently took to social media to voice his thoughts on the political and cultural landscapes. Carter, who has held office since 2021 and has served in various state-level positions, engages with online followers regarding amendments, historical preservation, and civic engagement.

On March 30, 2025, Carter tweeted about Louisiana's constitutional amendments, emphasizing the electorate's call for equity and justice: "The defeat of Louisiana’s constitutional amendments is a clear message: our people demand fairness, compassion, and accountability. Across party lines, voters stood for what’s right. Let’s keep working together to uphold our shared values. #LouisianaStrong".

The following day, March 31, 2025, Carter addressed the significance of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, framing it as a vital institution: "We will not stand by as our history is dismissed, diminished, or defunded. The National Museum of African American History and Culture is not 'divisive'—it is essential. It tells the truth of a people who built this nation, endured its greatest injustices, and still rise to shape".

Later that same day, Carter celebrated the impact of civic participation, stating, "Your VOTE matters — Great job, Louisiana! https://t.co/sDhdSPTlAM".
