Chairwoman Lisa McClain, currently serving as a U.S. Congress representative for Michigan’s 9th district, recently shared her views on several pressing issues via social media. Since assuming office in 2021 after succeeding Paul Mitchell, McClain has been vocal on matters concerning national security and education policy.

On June 4, 2025, McClain criticized the Democratic Party's focus on immigration issues over American interests. She questioned whether Democrats would prioritize domestic concerns by asking rhetorically if their "next flight be to Boulder to visit the illegal alien who lit a Holocaust survivor on fire." The tweet can be accessed here.

Later that day, McClain expressed her appreciation for insights shared by Education Secretary @EDSecMcMahon during a session at the @EdWorkforceCmte. She emphasized the importance of creating favorable outcomes for students while safeguarding parental rights, querying rhetorically: "Who could be against that?" Her thoughts are available here.

In another post made on June 4, McClain urged the Senate to pass what she referred to as "OUR One Big Beautiful Bill Act." She highlighted support from @RepMessmer and its potential benefits for rural communities during a House GOP Leadership Stakeout. The complete tweet is accessible here.

Born in Stockbridge, Michigan in 1966 and currently residing in Bruce, McClain graduated from Northwood University with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in 1997.
