On March 27, 2025, Allen tweeted about his visit to Ben's timber operation in Treutlen County after Hurricane Helene. He described the aftermath as "gut-wrenching" and committed to advocating at the federal level for necessary assistance for recovery efforts.
Later on March 27, 2025, Allen announced that H. J. Res. 75 had passed. The resolution, supported by Representative Craig Goldman, criticizes energy standards applied to commercial refrigerators and freezers, describing them as detrimental bureaucratic barriers introduced under the Biden Administration.
