Eli Crane, a U.S. Congressman representing Arizona’s 2nd District since 2023, recently expressed his views on several national issues through social media. His statements reflect ongoing concerns about federal funding for education and fiscal responsibility.

On March 8, 2025, Rep. Crane shared his opinion on defunding Ivy League schools. He stated, "I introduced legislation to defund Ivy League schools back in 2023. Glad to see President Trump going after these hate-filled institutions. As we all know, Congress would never do it on their own. It’s a slap in the face of everyday Americans to fund these schools."

Later that day, Rep. Crane addressed the national debt issue with a brief remark: "The national debt is over $36 trillion dollars. That is extremely bad." The statement highlights his concern about the country's growing financial obligations.

On March 9, 2025, he posted another comment questioning motives behind opposing efforts to reduce wasteful government spending: "The only reason to be against cutting out waste, fraud, and abuse is if you stand to benefit from the waste, fraud, and abuse. Makes you wonder."
