On August 26, 2025, Flood highlighted Nebraska's growing reputation as a center for financial technology innovation, writing: "Last year, Flyover Fintech brought national leaders and innovators to Lincoln- such as @PatrickMcHenry, @Fidelity, @Grayscale, and more.

The following day, on August 27, Flood announced new federal support for veterans in the state: "NEW: The @DeptVetAffairs awarded $3.5 million to @ActionNebraska to bolster their services to veterans & their families who are homeless or at risk. This funding helps expand housing assistance, childcare, & other big wins for our state's veterans https://t.co/kBwtDuzwr4".
Later that same day, Flood addressed a tragic event at a school in Minnesota: "Mandi and I are praying for the victims, their families, and everyone at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minnesota after news of this devastating tragedy.
