Grace Meng, a U.S. Congress member representing New York’s 6th district, recently shared her thoughts and activities on social media. Her posts covered topics ranging from condolences for community members to constituent services and workforce issues at the IRS.

On February 20, 2025, Meng expressed her condolences following the deaths of two sanitation workers. "My thoughts are with the families & loved ones of Nelvern Samuel & Michael Biuso, who tragically passed this week. These dedicated @NYCSanitation workers served our community for many years & their contributions will not be forgotten. May they rest in peace."

Later that day, Meng highlighted a successful case of constituent service involving military records. She stated on February 20, 2025: "Constituent Success Story: Securing Military Records Recently, a veteran from Flushing reached out for help with his DD214, an important document verifying veterans' military service, and my team was able to get it to him in less than a week!"

In another post on February 20, 2025, Meng addressed concerns about workforce reductions at the IRS during tax season. She questioned the efficiency of such actions by stating: "Right in the middle of tax season, the IRS is terminating nearly 7,000 workers. These are dedicated public servants who process your returns and make sure you receive a timely and accurate refund. How is this efficient?"
