Congresswoman Jennifer McClellan, representing Virginia's 4th district, shared her views on recent political developments through a series of tweets. Her comments touched on clean energy investments, the nomination of Kash Patel as FBI Director, and an upcoming Tele-Town Hall Meeting.

On February 12, 2025, McClellan expressed concerns over the Trump-Vance Administration's approach to clean energy projects. She stated that "Historic investments in clean energy have spurred economic growth, created jobs, and generated more electricity here in America to meet growing demand." She criticized the administration for attempting to redirect funds from these projects towards tax cuts for billionaires.

Later that day, McClellan voiced her opposition to Kash Patel's nomination as FBI Director. In a tweet posted at 21:38 UTC, she described Patel as "a Trump loyalist who lacks the temperament, experience, and character necessary to serve as FBI Director." She mentioned joining fellow representatives in urging Senate colleagues to reject his confirmation.

In another tweet posted at 23:32 UTC on February 12th, McClellan invited constituents to participate in her Tele-Town Hall Meeting. She encouraged people to "Dial (833) 746-0071 TOMORROW at 6 pm" for the event.
