On May 22, McClain expressed optimism about potential taxpayer savings through the implementation of her bipartisan legislation. "This could be millions of taxpayer dollars saved on outdated currency," she stated. She further explained that her Common Cents Act aims to solidify the current administration's executive order into law, ensuring the policy's longevity.

Later that day, McClain criticized House Democrats for their unanimous opposition to several financial benefits for American families. "This morning, EVERY House Democrat united to vote against: $13,000 more in take home pay for American families Saving the average American family $1,700 No tax on tips and overtime Tax cuts on seniors’ Social Security benefits Expanding the child tax credit," she remarked.

In another post from May 22, McClain congratulated a colleague for legislative success. "CONGRATULATIONS to my friend @HouseBudgetGOP Chairman @RepArrington on today’s passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act! " This tweet underscores her support for Republican initiatives within Congress.
