Matt Maddock, a Michigan state representative, shared a series of posts on his Twitter account on March 9, 2026, addressing support for certain bills among Republican lawmakers and commenting on federal involvement in local zoning laws.

In one post, Maddock stated: “These bills have the support of many republican state lawmakers.” (March 9, 2026).

Shortly after, he posted: “He must be college edukated https://t.co/yMDqcXLv4y” (March 9, 2026).

Later that day, Maddock questioned the role of federal authorities in local governance by asking: “Do we want the feds telling your community what your zoning laws should be? If your zoning ppl are idiots and working for the leftists who want us all to live on top of one another, then replace them!” (March 9, 2026).

Maddock has been an active figure in Michigan’s Republican Party and is known for voicing concerns about federal intervention in state and local matters. Zoning laws in the United States are typically determined at the municipal or county level, but debates continue over whether there should be more uniform standards imposed by higher levels of government.
