Chairwoman Lisa McClain, a current member of the U.S. Congress representing Michigan's 9th district, has shared several comments via social media that reflect her views on political and social issues. McClain has been active in Congress since replacing Paul Mitchell in 2021, and her statements provide insight into her priorities and political stance.

On April 16, 2025, McClain tweeted, "Clearly for Democrats, MS-13 matters more than MD-01. Kilmar Abrego Garcia — he IS home." The implication in her message critiques her political opponents' focus and priorities, particularly in the context of gang activities versus local congressional matters.

Later that same day, McClain announced her upcoming media appearance, saying, "Looking forward to joining The Chris Salcedo Show on @NEWSMAX to talk about our efforts to fight antisemitism on college campuses! Be sure to tune in. @CSalcedoShow". The announcement indicates her involvement in addressing antisemitism and suggests that it is a topic of discussion in her immediate agenda.

Another tweet from McClain on April 16 provides a critical outlook on her opposition, stating, "Democrats are on the side of violent illegal immigrants, lawbreakers, and foreign criminal organizations. Democrats don’t care about the American people." This statement underscores her ongoing critique of the Democratic Party's policies, particularly in relation to immigration and criminal activities.

Lisa McClain was born in Stockbridge, Michigan in 1966 and currently resides in Bruce. She graduated from Northwood University in 1997 with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration.
