Representative Lisa McClain, currently serving Michigan's 9th district in the U.S. Congress, shared a series of tweets on January 23, 2025, expressing her views on national security, economic policies, and legislative priorities. McClain replaced Paul Mitchell in Congress in 2021 and has been vocal about her support for former President Donald Trump's policies.

In a tweet posted at 13:54 UTC, McClain addressed ongoing attacks by the Houthis on American sailors. She stated that "For over a year, the Houthis have launched drones and missiles at our sailors. The world has needed strength – not weakness or wokeness." She credited former President Trump with restoring deterrence and respect for America.

Later that day at 16:10 UTC, McClain tweeted about economic policies under Trump’s leadership. She emphasized the importance of manufacturing jobs staying within the United States by stating "Promises made, promises kept. In Michigan, made in Detroit means something." She affirmed Trump's commitment to using any necessary tools to protect American workers.

At 16:25 UTC on the same day, McClain highlighted upcoming legislative actions in Congress. She mentioned two bills aimed at saving lives: "The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Act and the Fixing Our Forests Act are common-sense solutions." These bills were scheduled for a vote in the House.
