Deb Haaland, former U.S. Secretary of the Interior and current candidate for governor of New Mexico, used her social media platform in early November 2025 to address issues related to healthcare access, family support programs, and political developments.

On November 2, 2025, Haaland posted about her commitment to improving healthcare in New Mexico: "Everyone deserves to see a doctor when they're sick. Period. Trump and MAGA Republicans are making it harder for everyday people to access basic needs. As governor, I plan to fight back and make healthcare in NM affordable and accessible."

Later that day, she discussed the importance of income-neutral outcomes for children through federal assistance programs: "Income should never dictate the outcomes of our kids. WIC and Head Start make sure families have meals, education, health screenings, and other essential resources. They helped me give my child the best start I could, and I know families across the state are in the same boat. No".

On November 5, 2025, Haaland congratulated Abigail Spanberger on her historic election as Virginia's first woman governor: "Cheering on my former colleague Abigail Spanberger (@SpanbergerForVA) Virginia's Governor-Elect! Abigail is fierce, determined, and laser-focused on results. Congratulations to the first woman governor of Virginia!"

The Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program provides nutritional support for low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and young children in the United States. Head Start is a federal program that promotes school readiness for young children from low-income families by offering educational services as well as health screenings.

Abigail Spanberger previously served as a U.S. Representative from Virginia before winning the gubernatorial race in 2025.
