On March 13, 2025, Rep. Thompson tweeted about his participation in the annual Bike Summit in Washington hosted by the League of American Bicyclists. He stated: "Great to join the @bikeleague for their annual Bike Summit in Washington. Over the last twenty years, bike commuting has grown 60 percent nationwide. As Co-Chair of the Congressional Bike Caucus, I’m working to continue to make biking safer and more accessible."

Later that day, he commented on a legal decision affecting public servants: "Today’s ruling to reinstate tens of thousands of essential public servants is a big win in our fight against the President’s unlawful actions." This tweet was posted at 21:11 UTC.

In another tweet posted on March 14, 2025, at midnight UTC, Rep. Thompson expressed his condolences following the death of a fellow congressman: "Deeply saddened by the passing of my colleague, Congressman Raúl Grijalva.
