Rep. Carol Miller, a U.S. Congress member representing West Virginia's 1st district since 2019, has recently shared her views on various issues through social media posts. These posts highlight her support for national security measures, rural healthcare initiatives, and public health awareness.

On March 3, 2025, Rep. Miller expressed gratitude towards the President of the United States and Customs and Border Protection officers for their efforts in securing the nation's borders. She emphasized the importance of leadership that fulfills promises to the American people. "Thank you @POTUS and to the @CBP officers for securing our borders and keeping our nation safe! Finally, we have a President who keeps his promises to the American people. This is what real leadership looks like."

The following day, March 4, 2025, she addressed the significance of supporting rural hospitals by reintroducing legislation aimed at extending critical Medicare programs. "It’s important that rural hospitals have the support needed to provide patients with life-sustaining care. I reintroduced the ARCH Act to extend the Medicare-Dependent Hospital program & Medicare low-volume hospital payments to rural hospitals to ensure they can remain open."

Later on March 4, 2025, Rep. Miller urged her constituents to prioritize kidney disease testing during Kidney Month due to its often asymptomatic nature in early stages. "This March, I urge my constituents to talk to your doctor about getting tested for kidney disease. Kidney disease is often called a 'silent disease' because there are few symptoms in early stages."
