Rep. Don Bacon has taken to social media to discuss various topics, including the recognition of women's contributions in his district and geopolitical issues relating to Russia and Ukraine. The tweets were shared on March 31, 2025.
In one tweet, Rep. Bacon announced, "Since I was first sworn in, I have honored a woman from the 2nd Congressional District for her impacts to our community. Here is a list of all our recipients." This refers to his practice of acknowledging women from Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District and highlights his longstanding commitment to recognizing local efforts.
In another tweet, Rep. Bacon drew parallels between Vladimir Putin's actions and historical figures Stalin and Mao, stating, "Putin’s tactics of taking Ukrainian children and distributing them throughout the rest of Russia resemble those of Stalin and Mao. Putin wants to erase Ukraine’s culture, language, and history." The tweet expresses concern about the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
Furthermore, Rep. Bacon addressed the complexity of achieving peace in the region: "Peace won’t be easy, but we must reject the trap of making a false choice. It is possible to end the war for Ukraine, preserve our moral clarity by holding Russia accountable and advance America’s long-term national interests in the process." His remarks suggest a balanced approach to resolving the conflict.
