Rep. Monica De La Cruz, U.S. Congresswoman representing Texas’ 15th district, addressed her constituents and the broader public in a series of posts on social media between August 27 and August 28, 2025. Her statements included condolences following a tragedy in Minneapolis, information about constituent services, and support for a local school supply drive.
On August 27, De La Cruz expressed sympathy for those affected by an incident at a Minneapolis school: “My prayers are with the victims and their families following the horrific tragedy at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. May God bless the students, faculty, and the entire community during this difficult time.”
Later that day, she informed residents about opportunities to seek assistance from her office: “If you need help with a federal agency, visit my team this Thursday, August 28th at one of our mobile office hour events in Jim Wells and Live Oak Counties or call us at (956) 800-6069 in McAllen or (830) 463-0800 in Seguin.

On August 28, De La Cruz highlighted efforts to ensure students are prepared for the new academic year: “No student should feel unprepared entering the school year. @foodbankrgv ’s Back to School Supply Drive is open for one more day, so every South Texas student has the opportunity to succeed! https://t.co/2I7W2a90JA”
De La Cruz has served as U.S. Representative since replacing Vicente Gonzalez in 2023. She secured her seat after defeating Michelle Vallejo in both the 2022 and 2024 general elections.
In those contests, she won by margins of approximately nine percentage points each time.
