Chairwoman Lisa McClain, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Michigan's 9th District, expressed her viewpoints on recent legislative actions through a series of tweets on April 10, 2025.

In the first tweet of the day, McClain shared the news about a recent vote by House Republicans. She stated, "House Republicans just voted to restore balance to the judicial system." The message was accompanied by a symbol of justice.

Later that day, McClain addressed the topic of tax increases, asserting her position on the matter. In a tweet posted at 12:57 PM UTC, she urged action from her peers, saying, "Let’s make Democrats defend wanting the largest tax increase in American history." She also challenged Democrats to justify their opposition to a bill that purportedly includes significant savings and protection for essential programs such as Medicaid.

In her final tweet on the same day, McClain responded to statements from Democrats regarding a legislative bill. At 1:52 PM UTC, she pointed out what she described as misinformation: "Democrats are lying, saying this bill prevents women from registering to vote — it PROTECTS their vote." McClain emphasized that the bill aims to prevent non-citizens from voting while providing multiple methods to verify voter identity.

McClain, born in Stockbridge, Michigan, in 1966, resides in Bruce, Michigan. She holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from Northwood University, obtained in 1997. McClain succeeded Paul Mitchell in representing Michigan's 9th District in 2021.
