On August 20, 2025, Scholten highlighted her engagement with local library leaders, writing: "It was an honor to host leaders from the Kent District Library Talking Book & Braille Center in Washington last month to accept the 2025 Subregional Library/Advisory and Outreach Center of the Year Award. I loved touring their headquarters back home in West Michigan this week."

The following day, on August 21, 2025, Scholten commented on her ongoing efforts to connect with constituents: "Thank you, Wyoming! Another great town hall in the books as part of my Scholten Summer Town Hall Series. There’s nothing better than hearing directly from you."
