Congressman Ben Cline, currently representing Virginia’s Sixth District, shared a series of tweets on April 9, 2025. Each tweet addressed varied issues spanning local economic development, international relations, and federal government operations.
On April 9, 2025, Cline announced a positive economic development for his district, stating "Great news for the Sixth District! Caf2Code, a software development and IT consultancy company, is investing $135,000 to expand its operations in Harrisonburg—bringing 20 new high-quality jobs to the area. It’s great to see companies like this grow right here in our community,” highlighting his commitment to local economic growth.
Adding to his critique of foreign policy, Cline criticized the Biden administration's handling of a sensitive international incident on the same day, April 9, 2025. He expressed his disapproval in a tweet, noting "The Biden State Dept. held secret talks with Communist China about how the spy balloon would look if the American people found out. They cared more about China’s feelings than protecting U.S. sovereignty. Outrageous. This is what weakness looks like.”
Later on April 9, 2025, Cline also addressed federal efficiency in disposing of unused properties. He tweeted "$20 BILLION in deferred maintenance. That’s the cost of a bloated federal government sitting on empty buildings. Glad @DOGE is finally selling them off and saving taxpayers millions. Time to shrink government and restore fiscal sanity." underscoring efforts to enhance government accountability and cost-saving measures.
