David Joyce, a U.S. Congressman representing Ohio's 14th district since 2013, recently shared several updates on his legislative activities and local engagements via social media. Born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1957, Joyce has been an active member of Congress following his predecessor Steve LaTourette.

On February 12, 2025, Joyce announced that the Education and Workforce Committee was reviewing his proposed legislation aimed at "keeping the CCP out of our classrooms." He invited followers to tune into the proceedings through a link provided in his tweet. "@EdWorkforceCmte is marking up my legislation today to keep the CCP out of our classrooms."

Later that day, he extended congratulations to Jim Tressel from Ohio's 14th district for his confirmation as Ohio's next Lieutenant Governor. Joyce expressed anticipation for working with Tressel to serve the people of Ohio. "Congratulations to OH-14’s own Jim Tressel on his official confirmation to serve as Ohio’s next Lt. Governor!"

On February 13, 2025, Joyce addressed concerns about border security by supporting the Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act. This legislation aims to enhance criminal penalties associated with high-speed vehicle chases near the southern border—a response to what he described as lawlessness under the previous administration. "The lawlessness at our southern border under the previous Administration has put our law enforcement and communities at risk."
