On March 11, 2025, Auchincloss addressed a decision made by Speaker Johnson last December concerning a bipartisan bill intended to lower prescription drug co-pays and reduce health insurance abuses. According to Auchincloss, the bill was removed from consideration due to criticism from Elon Musk. He stated, "Last December, Speaker Johnson yanked a bipartisan bill from the floor that would lower Rx drug co-pays, rein in health-insurance abuses, and save taxpayers money. Why? Because Elon Musk criticized it."
Later that day, he provided his thoughts on H.J.Res.25 without elaborating further in his tweet: "My statement on H.J.Res.25." This indicates ongoing involvement in legislative matters.
In another post dated March 12, 2025, Auchincloss criticized the Trump Administration's handling of a spending bill.
