On March 20, 2026, Scholten expressed support for college sports teams in the state, posting: “Good luck to all our Michigan teams competing in the tournament this weekend — we’re cheering you on across West Michigan. Go Blue and Go Green! “
The following day, she congratulated a longstanding community institution: “Congratulations to the John Ball Zoo on celebrating 135 years of operation!” (March 21, 2026).
Later that same day, Scholten highlighted her efforts to maintain communication with constituents through regular updates: “Sending out my weekly newsletter helps me stay transparent and accountable to YOU. Make sure you’re subscribed to stay in the loop about how I’m working for West Michigan in D.C.!” (March 21, 2026).
