Matt Maddock, a member of the Michigan House of Representatives, recently posted a series of tweets addressing political and economic issues in Michigan.
On August 8, 2025, Maddock commented on anticipated opposition to an unspecified issue, writing, "And communists will fight this like a war."
Later that day, he highlighted disparities in auto insurance rates across the United States. In his tweet from August 8, 2025, Maddock stated: "Michigan has the 3rd highest auto insurance at $3,700. Maine has the lowest at $950. National average is $2,000. What do you pay?" Michigan has consistently ranked among the states with the highest car insurance premiums in the country due to a variety of factors including unique no-fault insurance laws and higher claims costs.
On August 9, 2025, Maddock posted another tweet containing only a link: "https://t.co/6VDbheHfZ4"
Maddock's social media activity often addresses issues relevant to Michigan residents. According to state reports and consumer data, Michigan’s high auto insurance rates are attributed to its unique no-fault insurance system and historical legislative challenges (https://www.michigan.gov/difs/news-and-outreach/press-releases/2023/06/22/michigan-auto-insurance-rates-remain-among-highest-in-nation). These ongoing debates about reforming auto insurance have been a central topic for lawmakers and constituents alike.
