Judy Chu, a U.S. Congress member representing California's 28th district since 2009, shared her views on various political issues through a series of tweets on March 5, 2025. Her posts covered topics such as government efficiency, workers' rights, and the importance of civil servants.

In her first tweet at 20:05 UTC, Chu expressed concerns about government efficiency. She stated that ".@DOGE isn't about efficiency." She argued that it is more about allowing "ultra-wealthy tax cheats" to keep their money and enabling former President Trump to outsource essential services to corporations run by Elon Musk and his donors.

Later that day at 22:15 UTC, Chu emphasized the significance of unions in supporting the American middle class. In her tweet, she announced that she and her colleagues from the Labor Caucus were introducing the #PROAct. The legislation aims to "protect workers’ rights to form & join unions," ensure fair union elections, and hold employers accountable for violating worker rights.

At 22:37 UTC, Chu reiterated her commitment to defending civil servants regardless of circumstances. She highlighted the negative consequences of mass firings of civil servants in a tweet stating that such actions lead to "higher everyday costs," reduced benefits like Social Security and Medicare, unsafe communities, and deteriorating public services.
