Senator Todd Young, a U.S. Senator representing Indiana, recently posted a series of updates on his social media account, addressing legislative efforts, community engagement, and U.S. foreign policy. The posts span October 9 and 10, 2025.
On October 9, 2025, Young highlighted his involvement in a legislative initiative with the post: "Glad to be part of this important effort to protect the health of women, the rights of states, and unborn life." He did not provide further details in the tweet regarding the specific legislation or measures involved.
Later that day, Young commented on his engagement with students visiting Washington D.C., stating: "Enjoyed meeting with students from St. Luke Catholic School in Indianapolis and Frankton Jr./Sr. High School in Madison County during their trips to D.C." This reflects his ongoing interaction with constituents and local educational communities.
On October 10, 2025, Young addressed changes in U.S. foreign policy regarding Iraq. He wrote: "The Gulf War started 34 years ago, and the Iraq War began 22 years ago. These conflicts have long ended, and today Iraq is a partner, not an adversary. It’s time for our law to reflect that reality. Tonight’s Senate passage is a step in the right direction, and I will continue" The message refers to recent Senate action toward repealing outdated authorizations for the use of military force against Iraq.
The context for Young's third post involves longstanding legislative discussions about repealing Authorizations for Use of Military Force (AUMFs) that date back to the Gulf War (1991) and Iraq War (2003). In recent years, there has been bipartisan momentum in Congress to repeal these authorizations as Iraq is now considered a partner nation. The Senate has previously advanced measures aimed at formally ending these authorizations as a reflection of current U.S.-Iraq relations.
Senator Todd Young has served in the U.S. Senate since 2017. He has been involved in a range of legislative issues including foreign policy, education, and healthcare.
