On August 26, 2025, Hinson posted about her engagement with local stakeholders and business owners in Mason City: "Just wrapped up a great US Chamber roundtable with local stakeholders and business owners in Mason City. You’re essential to the strength of Iowa’s rural economy, and I’m grateful for our partnership. We agreed: hardworking Iowans and small businesses deserve a tax code that https://t.co/ZfYH8NPtZY".

The following day, August 27, 2025, she commented on energy policy and consumer prices: "Thanks, President Trump! Turns out when you unleash American energy instead of stifling it, prices go down for consumers. https://t.co/FA3CXB4TT7".

Later that morning, Hinson highlighted her ongoing outreach across the district: "On the road again — live from Mason City! We’ve already made more than 80 stops across the district this year on my 22 County Tour…many more to go! https://t.co/ZCcfWIqajD".

Born in Des Moines in 1983 and currently residing in Marion, Hinson graduated from the University of Southern California with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 2004.
