U.S. Representative Kathy Castor, who has served Florida’s 14th district since 2007, recently shared a series of tweets addressing various issues and events. Born in Miami in 1966, Castor has been an active figure in U.S. Congress following her tenure in the Florida House of Representatives.

On December 3, 2024, Castor announced an event aimed at assisting constituents with federal agency processes and disaster-related needs. The tweet read: "TOMORROW! My team is here to help you cut through the red tape of federal agencies. Stop by Raymond James Stadium from 8:30 AM - 10:30 AM for disaster assistance and casework related needs."

The following day, on December 4, 2024, she updated her followers about the ongoing event with a succinct message: "Happening now! " This was accompanied by a link presumably providing more information.

Later that same day, Rep. Castor addressed healthcare policy issues concerning children's health insurance. She tweeted: "Bipartisan lawmakers in Florida agree - we need CHIP expansion now. It's time for Gov. DeSantis to accept the federal waiver to allow kids to have the affordable health coverage they need and deserve." This statement reflects her advocacy for expanding access to affordable health coverage for children in Florida.
