Congressman Tom Barrett posted a series of updates on August 22, 2025, addressing local news coverage, national security concerns, and community appreciation efforts.

In his first post of the day, Barrett shared a media story related to the Small Business Administration (SBA) by referencing @SBA_Kelly and directing followers to coverage from WILX-TV. He wrote: "@SBA_Kelly @wilxTV has the story here: https://t.co/suljVRbBBK" (August 22, 2025).

Later that afternoon, Barrett commented on immigration and national security issues. He stated: "America is under no obligation to allow convicted criminals and terrorists into our country to incite violence and antisemitism. That’s why I joined @RepMoolenaar in sending a letter urging the administration to prevent extremist Hussam Shaheen from traveling to Michigan to speak" (August 22, 2025). In this message, he referenced collaborating with Congressman John Moolenaar in requesting federal action regarding travel restrictions for Hussam Shaheen.

In his final post of the evening, Barrett expressed gratitude toward local emergency responders. He wrote: "Thanks to Chief Kevin Douglas and the entire St. Johns Fire Department for the warm welcome earlier this week. Our community is grateful for everything this team does to put out fires and save lives in mid-Michigan! https://t.co/zP19GZvTZJ" (August 22, 2025).

Congressman Tom Barrett represents Michigan's 7th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives.
