Chairwoman Lisa McClain, a U.S. Congress member representing Michigan’s 9th district since 2021, has recently made several statements on social media regarding tax policies and issues on college campuses. McClain succeeded Paul Mitchell in her congressional role and is known for her active engagement in legislative matters.
On May 6, 2025, McClain expressed criticism towards the Democratic Party’s stance on small businesses. She stated that “Democrats cannot pretend to celebrate National Small Business Week when they continue to vote to RAISE TAXES on America’s small businesses.” This comment reflects ongoing debates about taxation and its impact on small enterprises across the United States.
Later that day, McClain announced an upcoming event via Twitter. She shared a link to a press conference with the brief message: “Chairwoman Lisa McClain Press Conference”. The details of this conference were not specified in the tweet.
In another post on May 6, 2025, McClain invited followers to attend a press conference addressing antisemitism in higher education institutions. She emphasized the issue extends beyond prestigious universities by stating: ” TUNE IN: I’m holding a press conference on antisemitism on college campuses beyond the Ivies. (@RepFine, @EdWorkforceCmte, @RepWalberg, @RepBurgessOwens)” This highlights her focus on combating discrimination within educational settings.
Lisa McClain was born in Stockbridge, Michigan in 1966 and currently resides in Bruce. She completed her Bachelor of Business Administration at Northwood University in 1997.
