Senator John Cornyn, a longtime U.S. Senator from Texas, posted several updates on July 28, 2025, addressing concerns about agriculture and the technology sector.
In his first post of the day, Cornyn shared an article with the statement: “Avian Flu Wiped Out Poultry. Now the Screwworm Is Coming for Beef.” (July 28, 2025). This tweet highlights ongoing threats to livestock industries in the United States.
Later that morning, Cornyn turned attention to developments in semiconductor manufacturing and electric vehicles. He wrote: “Exclusive: Samsung has struck a $16.5 billion deal to produce semiconductors for Tesla, boosting its underperforming foundry division” (July 28, 2025).
A third post from Cornyn at midday included only links: “https://t.co/lW2XalSx3f https://t.co/61txq1d2wa” (July 28, 2025), without further commentary.
Senator Cornyn has held his seat since first winning election in 2002 and has been reelected multiple times—defeating Ron Kirk in 2002 with 55% of the vote; Rick Noriega in 2008 with nearly 55%; David Alameel in 2014 with over 61%; and MJ Hegar in 2020 with more than half of ballots cast.
