Rep. Nancy Mace, a U.S. Congresswoman representing South Carolina’s 1st district since 2021, used her Twitter account on April 30, 2026, to comment on recent legislative actions in the House of Representatives.

Mace’s public statements reflect her ongoing focus on fiscal responsibility in social programs and advocacy for her district’s industries. She has served in Congress since replacing Joe Cunningham in 2021 and previously held office in the South Carolina House of Representatives from 2018 to 2020. Born in Fort Bragg, North Carolina in 1977 and currently residing in Charleston, Mace graduated from The Citadel with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1999.
