On June 1, 2025, Houchin commented on the recent California girls’ state track championship where a biological male emerged victorious. She expressed her disapproval by stating, "A biological male just won the California girls’ state track championship — and the left is celebrating it as 'progress.' It’s not. It’s an insult to every young woman who trained, competed, and played by the rules."

In another post dated June 2, 2025, Houchin addressed a recent act of anti-Semitism. She described the incident as "heartbreaking and unacceptable," offering condolences by stating, "We’re praying for the victims and their families."

Later that day, she shared insights from her visit to Margaret Mary Health's Oncology Center. Highlighting their focus on sustainable energy solutions, she noted "Recently, I had the opportunity to visit Margaret Mary Health to tour their Oncology Center and get a firsthand look at their new hospital currently under construction. A key focus of the visit was their impressive investment in geothermal energy—an innovative, long-term solution." This reflects her interest in environmental advancements within healthcare.
