Rep. Don Bacon, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Nebraska's 2nd district, has been vocal on various issues via social media. Born in Momence, Illinois in 1963, Bacon graduated from Northern Illinois University and the University of Phoenix. He replaced Brad Ashford in 2017 and resides in Papillion.
On June 11, 2025, Rep. Bacon tweeted "NE and Freedom First." The brief message underscored his focus on promoting freedom within Nebraska.
Later that day, he expressed enthusiasm about a recent discussion by tweeting "Great to chat with Liz on @capitolcoffpod about community, kindness, and the Nebraska way of life!" This highlighted his engagement with local culture and values through a podcast appearance.
In another tweet posted shortly after, Rep. Bacon addressed trade issues between Nebraska and Canada: "Canada is Nebraska's largest trading partner and cornerstone of our agricultural economy. Tariffs imposed on Canada have cost our district millions in lost revenue and severely disrupted vital trade relationships. We must restore normalized trade relations with Canada now." His statement emphasized the economic impact of tariffs on Nebraska's agricultural sector.
