Judy Chu, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California's 28th district since 2009, has recently expressed her views on various political issues through social media. Her posts reflect her stance on labor rights, party solidarity, and transparency in government ethics investigations.

On November 19, 2024, Judy Chu commented on a judicial decision affecting labor rights. She stated that "A Trump-appointed federal judge struck down a @POTUS initiative to increase overtime eligibility for 4 million workers. Worse even, Trump's Project 2025 would cut overtime access further." She contrasted Democratic and Republican perspectives by adding, "Democrats believe we should pay people what they earn. Republicans show us they just don't."

Later that day, Chu welcomed a new member to the House Democrats. At 15:29 UTC, she posted "I'm proud to welcome you to the @HouseDemocrats family, Rep.-elect McBride! We are with you." Expressing confidence in the newly elected representative from Delaware, she added, "The people of Delaware put their trust in you, and I'm excited to work together to make the American dream more attainable for everyone."

In another post made at 18:43 UTC on November 19th, Chu called for transparency regarding an investigation involving a former congressman. She urged "Release the Gaetz Report." Emphasizing public right-to-know principles, she wrote about urging House Ethics to release findings related to accusations against former Representative Gaetz: "Americans deserve to know the truth about Trump's pick to be the nation's top law enforcement official."
