Maddock also commented on welfare statistics under Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s administration. In a tweet from March 20, he stated: “Since @gretchenwhitmer has been Governor, just over 409,000 people have been added to our welfare roles. Before her, we had as low as 1 out of 12.21 people on welfare and today it’s 1 in 4.35 on welfare. This has cost working ppl billions more in taxes.”
Maddock is known for his outspoken positions within Michigan’s Republican Party and frequently uses social media to voice criticisms of Democratic leadership in the state.
