Chairwoman Lisa McClain, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Michigan's 9th district, shared her views on law enforcement and legislative priorities through a series of tweets on May 14, 2025.

In a tweet posted at 13:39 UTC, McClain emphasized that "Supporting law enforcement should never be a partisan issue. House Republicans continue to prioritize policies that equip, train, and protect law enforcement." She encouraged readers to learn more about these efforts in her op-ed co-authored with Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard for National Police Week.

Later that day at 15:53 UTC, McClain highlighted the introduction of the LEOSA Reform Act. She stated that "The LEOSA Reform Act will allow trained professionals to respond quickly to emergencies in public spaces—improving public safety." She reaffirmed the commitment of House Republicans to strengthening law enforcement readiness and safety by asserting, "We will ALWAYS back the blue."

At 19:00 UTC, McClain addressed another legislative priority with urgency. She warned of potential consequences if their proposed legislation was not passed by stating, "If we do not pass our One Big, Beautiful Bill, there will be REAL consequences for REAL people." She called for support to deliver on the agenda of President Biden and the American people.

Lisa McClain has served in Congress since replacing Paul Mitchell in 2021. Born in Stockbridge, Michigan in 1966 and currently residing in Bruce, she graduated from Northwood University with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in 1997.
