Matt Maddock, a Republican state representative in Michigan, published a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter) expressing criticism regarding tax policies and their impact on local stakeholders.
On August 10, 2025, Maddock wrote, "This is just another money laundering scam to get tax money to the Michigan communist party." On August 11, he addressed property owners directly, stating, "If you are a Landlord you should invoice your Renter like this for every tax and mileage increase. Seriously. https://t.co/C5dGDBsudg" Later that day, Maddock shared another post containing only a link: "https://t.co/kLSRgboWRK"
Maddock has previously voiced opposition to Democratic-led fiscal initiatives in Michigan. He is known for his vocal stance against state tax increases and frequently uses social media platforms to engage with constituents about economic issues.
Michigan's recent legislative sessions have seen debates over tax allocation and increases affecting property owners and renters. Lawmakers continue to discuss how such changes influence both local government revenue streams and individual financial responsibilities.
