Rep. Melanie Stansbury, a member of the U.S. Congress representing New Mexico’s 1st District, expressed her views on various topics in a series of tweets posted on March 28, 2025. The congresswoman voiced skepticism regarding a billionaire's willingness to discuss Social Security on television rather than under oath before Congress. In another tweet, she referenced multiple federal court cases against certain admin activities. She also invited her constituents to participate in a town hall meeting.

On March 28, 2025, Rep. Melanie Stansbury questioned the credibility of an "unelected billionaire" who chooses to discuss Social Security issues exclusively on Fox News, implying skepticism about the billionaire's willingness to testify before Congress. "How many people out there believe an unelected billionaire who is only willing to discuss looting Social Security on Fox News and not under oath in front of Congress? Anyone? K, cool. Me neither. #HandsOffSocialSecurity #ThisIsAScam"

In another tweet on the same day, Stansbury highlighted numerous legal actions taken against an administration’s activities, alluding to over 160 federal court cases, and insinuating that avoidance of testimony might be due to the inability to confront these allegations under oath. "Dude. There are over 160 federal court cases detailing specifics and dozens of court rulings and restraining orders against the Admin’s illegal activities. And, you know it. Perhaps *this* is why you don’t want to testify under oath in front of Congress, because you can’t tell"

Later on March 28, 2025, Stansbury invited the residents of Corrales and Placitas to join a town hall gathering, providing details about the outdoor arrangements and encouraging constituents to bring personal amenities for comfort. "Corrales and Placitas: Join us this afternoon! And a reminder, if you plan on joining us in Corrales, our town hall will be held outside. Bring your umbrellas, camping chairs, picnic blankets, etc., and let’s chat!"
