Hoyer Announces Winners of 2021 Member Online All-Star Competition
“I’m pleased to announce this year’s Online All-Stars, who led House Democrats in acquiring hundreds of thousands of new followers on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube during the three-week competition,” Leader Hoyer said. “House Democrats are working hard to implement President Biden's Build Back Better agenda, and it's as important as ever to utilize social networks to hear from constituents and communicate how we are working on their behalf. I congratulate Rep. Joyce Beatty, who gained the most new followers and is the overall MVP, and Rep. Cori Bush, who excelled to win the Freshman MVP. I also want to congratulate Reps. Eric Swalwell, Richard Neal, Henry Cuellar, and Val Demings for performing incredibly well in the 2021 contest. I thank all of the Members and their staffs for their hard work and innovative efforts over the past three weeks to reach and engage with more Americans online.”
Rep. Joyce Beatty gained 22,426 new followers over the three-week contest by protecting the right to vote; sharing videos and photos to her followers; informing constituents about the newly expanded Child Tax Credit; honoring John Lewis’s legacy; supporting Capitol Police officers; engaging her followers with live-streams; and showcasing artwork from her district.
