Representative Lisa McClain, serving Michigan’s 9th district in the U.S. Congress since 2021, recently expressed her views on various political issues through a series of tweets. McClain, who succeeded Paul Mitchell and holds a BBA from Northwood University, used her platform to discuss topics including government efficiency, national security, and tax policies.

On March 5, 2025, Representative McClain criticized the Democratic Party for its approach to governance. She stated: "Republicans are continuing to root out waste, fraud, and abuse. Meanwhile, the deranged Democrats continue to defend and advocate for the BLOATED and inefficient bureaucracy."

Later that day, she emphasized the Republican Party's efforts towards national security by stating: "Republicans are making America, our communities, and our borders SECURE."

In another tweet on March 5, 2025, McClain addressed recent legislative decisions made by Democrats concerning taxation. She claimed: "Last week, the Democrats voted for the LARGEST tax increase in American history. - They voted to cut the Child Tax Credit in half for 40 million families. - They voted to cut six million jobs. - If they wanted what was best for America, they would have voted YES on the budget…"
