U.S. Congresswoman Lisa McClain, who represents Michigan’s 9th district, posted a series of tweets on April 15, 2026, focusing on tax policy and recent legislative developments.
In her first tweet at 20:03 UTC, McClain extended congratulations to fellow lawmaker Jay Obernolte: “Congratulations @JayObernolte! https://t.co/xMqwkDEbbn”.
Later that evening, at 21:21 UTC, McClain addressed tax legislation and partisan voting in the House: “Every single Democrat voted to raise your taxes.
But Republicans said NO WAY.
Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts, this tax season:
The average tax return is 11% HIGHER
25 million+ filers claimed NO TAX ON TIPS
6 million+ filers claimed NO TAX ON OVERTIME
34 https://t.co/I1ERq6K9qH“.
In a subsequent post at 21:48 UTC, she continued her criticism of Democratic lawmakers’ approach to tax policy: “Democrats were prepared to let the 2017 Trump tax cuts expire. That would have meant a 22% tax hike on working families. Republicans said NO. We united, I fought for Michigan families, we and passed the Working Families Tax Cuts — without a single Democrat vote.”
Lisa McClain has served in Congress since replacing Paul Mitchell in 2021. Born in Stockbridge, Michigan in 1966 and currently residing in Bruce, she holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from Northwood University (1997).
