Congressman Jim Baird, who has been representing Indiana's 4th district since 2019, recently shared a series of tweets addressing various legislative and public service matters. The tweets reflect his engagements and views on topics ranging from the National Guard's efforts to recent legislative achievements by the House GOP.

On January 23, 2025, Congressman Baird tweeted about his meeting with members of the U.S. National Guard. He expressed gratitude for their dedication, stating that "Over the weekend, I met with members of the @USNationalGuard! The National Guard worked tirelessly to ensure everyone's safety during President Trump's inauguration and has been a critical part of California's wildfire response." "I am grateful for their selfless dedication".

Later that day, he highlighted a legislative success by announcing that ".@HouseGOP PASSED @RepWesterman’s Fix Our Forests Act to cut bureaucratic red tape and promote proactive forest management policies." "This legislation is critical to preventing devastating wildfires like the ones in the Los Angeles area."

In another tweet on January 23, 2025, Baird celebrated the passage of a bill aimed at protecting infants born alive after attempted abortions. He stated that ".@HouseGOP PASSED the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act to ensure babies born alive from attempted abortions receive life-saving medical care." "This is a WIN for the right to life!" Despite this victory in his view, he noted that "Tragically, only ONE House Democrat voted for this common sense bill."
