Don Bacon, a U.S. Congressman representing Nebraska’s 2nd district since 2017, recently shared his views on several legislative and policy matters through social media posts. Bacon, who succeeded Brad Ashford in Congress, has been vocal about his efforts to support veterans and healthcare programs.

On March 21, 2025, Bacon expressed gratitude towards the House Veterans Affairs Committee and Representative Mike Bost for their role in advancing the CHIP-IN for Veterans Act. He stated that this legislation helped construct one of the top VA facilities in America. "I thank @HouseVetAffairs and @RepBost for considering our CHIP-IN for Veterans Act and making this legislation permanent."

Later that day, he posted a motivational message associated with the Air Force motto: "Aim High! Fly, Fight and Win".

In another post on March 21, 2025, Bacon reaffirmed his commitment to safeguarding Medicaid services for vulnerable populations. Drawing from personal visits to Children's Hospital, he emphasized Medicaid's crucial role in providing care: "We are going to protect Medicaid for the patients, disabled adults and the people who are protected by our safety net."
