On February 5, 2025, Rep. Self expressed his support for President Trump's decision to end what he described as "the Biden administration’s war on women’s sports."

The following day, February 6, 2025, Rep. Self highlighted the issue of synthetic opioid-related overdose deaths in the United States. He noted that "70% of the 107,000 overdose deaths in the U.S. involved a synthetic opioid" in 2023 and announced his support for The HALT Fentanyl Act. He emphasized the need to empower law enforcement against these drugs and shared his pride in voting for this legislation. More details are available here.
Later on February 6th, Rep. Self commented on President Trump's decision to fire Rohit Chopra as Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). He described it as "a great move" and urged Congress to pass his bill aimed at defunding the CFPB entirely. His statement calls for deleting what he refers to as an "unaccountable federal agency."
