U.S. Representative Mary Miller, who serves Illinois’ 15th district in Congress, posted a series of updates on her social media account on August 27, 2025, covering concerns about road safety, support for the agricultural sector, and a response to a tragedy in Minneapolis.
In a post made at 12:59 AM UTC, Miller stated: "Foreign drivers who can’t speak English are displacing American truckers and making our roads more dangerous.
Blue state governors like Gavin Newsom and JB Pritzker have flooded our roads with unsafe drivers. I'm working in Congress to stop it." She attributed increased road safety risks to foreign drivers and policies enacted by governors Gavin Newsom of California and JB Pritzker of Illinois.
Later that day at 2:42 PM UTC, Miller shared an update from the Farm Progress Show in Decatur: "It was a pleasure to join farmers and ag leaders at the Farm Progress Show in Decatur.
Illinois farmers are leading the world with resilience, innovation, and dedication. I’ll never stop fighting to keep our ag industry thriving for future generations!"
At 4:05 PM UTC on the same day, Miller addressed an incident in Minnesota: "Horrific tragedy out of Minneapolis this morning. Please join me in praying for the victims and their families. "
Mary Miller began representing Illinois’ 15th congressional district in 2021 after succeeding John Shimkus. She won her seat by defeating Erika Weaver in 2020 with 73.5% of the vote and was re-elected against Paul Lange in 2022 with 71.2% of the vote.
