Representative Lisa McClain, currently serving Michigan's 9th congressional district, recently took to X, the social media platform, to express her stance on legislative priorities, emphasizing her views on certain Democratic positions and policies. McClain, a Republican, has made clear her perspectives through a series of tweets addressing key political issues.

In a post dated April 1, 2025, McClain criticized fellow lawmakers, stating: "Democrats who vote against the SAVE Act are prioritizing illegal aliens over women." This statement underscores her disagreement with those opposing the proposed SAVE Act, suggesting it places other interests over women's priorities.

Later that same day, McClain posted another tweet, expressing discontent with the Democratic Party's approach to politics. She remarked: "If only it was a joke. The Democrats are still lost, out-of-touch, and hell-bent on fighting against personalities—not policies." Her comments reflect her belief that Democrats are diverting focus from substantial policy discussions.

In another tweet on April 1, 2025, McClain voiced her opposition to proxy voting by stating: "Our constituents expect us to show up and do our job in person. Proxy voting is a bad idea and a slippery slope." She also highlighted the potential consequences of voting against key rules, including failing to pass the SAVE Act, reversing what she views as harmful Biden Administration policies, and preventing interference from certain judicial decisions impacting former President Trump and broader American interests.
