French Hill, a U.S. Congressman representing Arkansas’ 2nd district since 2015, shared several updates on social media over the past two days. Hill, who succeeded Tim Griffin in Congress, has expressed his joy and pride in recent events and legislative efforts through his posts.

On January 22, 2025, Hill celebrated the safe return of the Corbett family to the United States with a post stating: "Overjoyed to see the Corbetts safely reunited on American soil!" This tweet reflects Hill's relief and happiness regarding their safe arrival back home.

Later that day, at 22:57 UTC, Hill voiced his support for a legislative act named after Laken Riley. He tweeted: "I am proud to once again support the Laken Riley Act and look forward to @POTUS signing it in short order. No family should have to endure the pain and suffering that Laken Riley’s family has." This statement indicates his commitment to supporting legislation aimed at preventing similar hardships faced by families like Riley's.

On January 23, 2025, Hill participated in a remembrance event for former Representative Beryl Anthony Jr., as he noted in another post: "Today, I joined @RepWesterman, @rep_stevewomack, and @RepRickCrawford in remembering the life and legacy of longtime AR-04 Rep. Beryl Anthony Jr. on the House floor. It was a privilege to know Beryl and witness the example he set for us all." The tribute highlights Anthony's influence and legacy within Arkansas politics.
