Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester, who has been serving in the U.S. Congress representing Delaware’s at-large district since 2017, recently shared her thoughts on social media regarding various issues. Her posts ranged from sports enthusiasm to critical comments on government policies and reflections on collaborative goals.

On March 11, 2025, Rep. Blunt Rochester expressed her support for the University of Delaware's sports team with a brief and enthusiastic message: "UD in DC! Let's go Blue Hens!"

Later that day, she criticized the Trump administration's decision to cancel a USDA program, emphasizing its impact on children and farmers. She stated: "The Agriculture Secretary just called a now-canceled USDA program that helped feed kids AND support our farmers 'non-essential.' You read that right - the Trump administration thinks both our children and our farmers are 'non-essential.'"

In another post on March 11, 2025, Rep. Blunt Rochester thanked Punchbowl News for inviting her to speak at an event. She highlighted shared objectives among participants: "Thanks to @PunchbowlNews for inviting me to speak this morning. This conversation was a poignant reminder that many of us share common goals like strengthening our supply chains and creating a better future for our kids."
