Brian Babin, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas’ 36th district, has been active on social media discussing various topics. Babin, who succeeded Steve Stockman in 2015, is known for his strong stances on military and health issues.
On January 28, 2025, Babin expressed support for President Trump’s decision to reinstate over 8,000 troops discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine. He stated that these troops would receive full back pay and benefits. According to Babin, “President Trump is righting Biden’s wrongs by reinstating over 8,000 troops who were unfairly discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine – with full back pay and benefits!” He further criticized Biden’s mandates as compromising military readiness.
On January 29, 2025, Babin congratulated the Boom team on achieving supersonic flight with XB-1. He noted this milestone as significant aviation innovation occurring in Rep. Vince Fong’s district. Babin tweeted: “Congratulations to the Boom team on achieving supersonic flight with XB-1, the first civil supersonic jet made in America!“
Later that day, Babin called for Senate confirmation of RFK Jr., highlighting his leadership in health matters. As a member of the Make America Healthy Again Caucus, he emphasized the need for leaders who prioritize health issues: “America needs leaders who will challenge the status quo and put our health first.“
