Congressman Wesley Hunt's press office has been active on social media, addressing various issues of national interest. Hunt, who has represented Texas's 38th District in the U.S. Congress since 2023, shared his perspectives on domestic mineral production, immigration laws, and handling of illegal aliens.

On February 6, 2025, Congressman Wesley Hunt emphasized the significance of domestic mineral production while speaking before the Natural Resources Committee. He stated that "President Trump has a clear mandate to boost U.S. resources and reduce reliance on our adversaries," reinforcing his commitment to this agenda. "And that’s exactly what we’ll do!"

On February 7, 2025, Hunt expressed his views on immigration and media narratives through a tweet criticizing the inability of "the media and Democrats" to distinguish between legal statuses. He declared: "If you broke U.S. immigration laws upon arrival, you’re a criminal—and you will be deported."

Later that day, he announced the transfer of highly-violent illegal aliens to Guantanamo Bay via another tweet. He highlighted the event by stating: "WATCH as Venezuelan Gang Members are shackled and booked." This action marks a significant step in his approach to handling certain immigration cases.
