On March 24, 2025, he highlighted his efforts to secure financial benefits for Indianapolis residents and expressed concerns about proposed cuts to essential programs. In another statement the same day, Carson drew upon his intelligence background to criticize the sharing of sensitive military plans in informal settings.

On March 24, Carson tweeted: "My office brings millions of dollars back to Indianapolis residents in lost or delayed benefits." He emphasized his commitment to safeguarding Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid against potential budgetary reductions.

Later that day, Carson posted another tweet stating: "I’ve worked in intelligence for years." He stressed the illegality and risks associated with disclosing imminent war plans in group chats and suggested that those responsible should lose their security clearances.

On March 25, he addressed wage inequality via Twitter: "On Equal Pay Day, we are reminded that women are still not paid fairly." He underscored the importance of passing the Paycheck Fairness Act as a step towards ensuring equitable compensation for all workers.
