U.S. Representative Lizzie Fletcher posted a series of statements on November 19, 2025, addressing current political issues and historical remembrance. Fletcher, who has won multiple consecutive elections since 2018 in her district, used her social media platform to voice opposition to actions by the Trump administration and to commemorate the anniversary of President Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address.

In a post published at 20:33 UTC, Fletcher criticized former President Trump’s education policies, stating: “As American families struggle under a health care and cost of living crisis, President Trump’s focus is on removing critical support for our children and their schools.

I will keep fighting to hold anyone involved, no matter how wealthy or well-connected, accountable for these crimes.”
