Rep. Elissa Slotkin, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Michigan's 7th district since 2019, has shared her views on recent economic developments through a series of tweets. Slotkin, who has been an advocate for Michigan's industries and trade relations, expressed concerns over tariffs affecting local sectors and also engaged with her audience through social media.

On January 31, 2025, Rep. Slotkin highlighted the importance of Michigan's industrial and agricultural sectors in a tweet. She stated: "The bottom line here: Michigan builds things and grows things. That’s what we do. We’re a northern border state, and have built a beneficial trade relationship with Canada. These tariffs — and the retaliation on US products — threaten our auto industry and our food growers."

The following day, February 1, 2025, she posted another tweet expressing enthusiasm about an unspecified topic or event by stating: "I'm here for this!" accompanied by a link.

Later that same day, she shared another post containing only a link: "https://t.co/QUOoK9J5QL", without additional context or commentary.
