Congressman Ben Cline, who represents Virginia's 6th District, has been vocal on various national security and constitutional issues through recent tweets. Cline shared his perspectives on current threats to national security, constitutional rights, and law enforcement achievements against crime.
On March 26, 2025, Congressman Cline expressed concerns about national security, linking these concerns to the current administration. He stated, "Today’s threats from our adversaries are real and escalating. I’m looking forward to today’s @HouseIntel Worldwide Threats hearing to hear how our intel leaders plan to reverse the damage done by the Biden administration, combat terrorism, and restore America's national security".
Later that day, Cline reiterated his commitment to the Constitution, particularly highlighting the Second Amendment. He mentioned his support for the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, stating, "I came to Washington to defend the Constitution—especially the Second Amendment. That’s why I support the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act because law-abiding gun owners shouldn’t lose their 2A rights just because they cross a state line."
On March 27, 2025, Cline addressed the capture of a key leader from the MS-13 gang in Virginia, attributing the success to concerted efforts by federal authorities. He tweeted, "One of the top MS-13 leaders in America was just caught in Virginia—thanks to work kicked off under @POTUS and @FBIDirectorKash. This is what happens when we put Americans first and go after violent criminals instead of rolling out the red carpet at the border."
