Brian Babin, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 36th district, shared updates on January 21, 2025, through a series of tweets addressing local safety measures and legislative initiatives.
In a tweet posted at 18:25 UTC, Babin urged residents of Jefferson County to "stay safe and stay warm," providing a list of available warming stations in the area to assist during cold weather conditions.
Later that day, at 22:01 UTC, Babin announced the introduction of the Birthright Citizenship Act. He stated that this bill aims to build on former President Trump's executive order by codifying reforms into law. He emphasized the need to "END the exploitation of loopholes in our immigration system" with this legislation. The announcement can be found here.
At 22:34 UTC, Babin highlighted concerns about birth tourism in another tweet. He noted that "1 in 10 U.S. births is to an illegal alien mother" and argued for America to cease being a destination for such practices. This was part of his rationale for introducing the Birthright Citizenship Act. More details are available here.
