Rep. Monica De La Cruz, U.S. Congresswoman representing Texas’ 15th district, posted a series of messages on September 10, 2025, highlighting recent local achievements and meetings with state officials.
In her first post at 16:00 UTC, De La Cruz congratulated the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) for their accomplishments: “History has been made in the Valley! Congrats to the @utrgv Football Team, Drill Team, and Marching Band on an undefeated start to your inaugural season. Spirit, pride, and tradition run deep in South Texas. V’s up!” The message celebrated the successful beginning of UTRGV’s football program and related teams.
Later that day at 18:41 UTC, De La Cruz shared details about a meeting with Sid Miller from the Texas Department of Agriculture: “Great to meet with @TexasDeptofAg Commissioner Sid Miller while he visited DC. We discussed the future of Texas ag and ways we can strengthen, support, and protect farmers and ranchers from rising threats, like the New World Screwworm and water shortages.”
Her third post at 19:01 UTC offered condolences to Charlie Kirk and his family: “Our prayers go out to Charlie Kirk and his family.”
De La Cruz began serving in Congress after defeating Michelle Vallejo in both the 2022 and 2024 general elections—winning by a margin of nearly 14 percentage points in 2024—and succeeded Vicente Gonzalez as representative for Texas’ 15th district in January 2023.
