Congressman Troy A. Carter, representing Louisiana’s 2nd district since 2021, has been vocal on social media regarding various political issues. On March 20, 2025, he addressed several topics through his Twitter account.

In a tweet posted at 16:19 UTC, Congressman Carter criticized former President Donald Trump for allegedly undermining the Department of Education. He stated, “Trump has reached a new low in his willingness to sell out Americans for his rich friends. Now, he’s going after our children by dismantling the Department of Education and betraying the 685,000 kids in our state who attend public and charter schools.”

Later that day at 17:43 UTC, Congressman Carter shared details about a recent event he hosted focused on Medicaid. He tweeted about the importance of protecting Medicaid from potential cuts proposed by Republicans. According to Carter’s post, “This week, I hosted an informative Medicaid Town Hall with 200 attendees, including community leaders and local elected officials, to reaffirm my commitment to protecting Medicaid from harmful Republican cuts.”

A subsequent tweet was made at 17:43 UTC; however, it contained only a link without additional commentary or context from Congressman Carter himself. The link can be found here.
