Josh Brecheen, currently serving as a U.S. Congressman representing Oklahoma's 2nd district, shared his views and upcoming initiatives through a series of tweets on February 13, 2025. His communications touched upon recent appointments, legislative plans, and fiscal policies.

On February 13, 2025, Congressman Josh Brecheen extended his congratulations to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., newly appointed Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Brecheen expressed optimism about Kennedy's potential impact on healthcare reform by stating: "Congratulations to @RobertKennedyJr on becoming the Secretary of @HHSGov. RFK Jr. will bring much needed reform to our healthcare system and improve the wellbeing of Americans." He further emphasized the need for healthcare improvements with the phrase "Make America Healthy Again!"

Later that day, Brecheen announced his intention to introduce new legislation called the USA FIRST Act. According to him, this bill aims to address funding priorities by redirecting tax dollars from international aid towards domestic disaster relief programs. In his words: "Tomorrow I’ll be introducing the USA FIRST Act to fix this exact problem." He advocated for prioritizing American needs over foreign policy agendas.

In another tweet from February 13, Brecheen commented on budgetary resolutions from the House Budget Committee aligned with former President Donald Trump's agenda. He remarked: "The @housebudgetGOP’s budget resolution will pave the way to deliver on President @realDonaldTrump’s America First agenda." This statement reflects his support for reducing government spending and ending subsidies related to green energy.
