Congressman Tom Barrett, who represents Michigan’s 7th Congressional District, shared a series of posts on September 17, 2025, focusing on tax relief measures and veterans’ affairs. In his tweets, Barrett highlighted recent legislative efforts and the visit of Vice President J.D. Vance to Michigan.
In a post published at 20:15 UTC, Barrett stated, "The Working Families Tax Cuts are boosting our economy and providing financial relief for Michiganders. It was great to have @VP Vance in town today to highlight how we are helping hardworking families get ahead and stay ahead."
Later that evening at 21:55 UTC, he added, "House Republicans and the Trump-Vance administration delivered historic tax relief to support Michiganders and hardworking families across the nation. It was a privilege to welcome the @VP to mid-Michigan today to see how our manufacturing industry and the working class are".
Barrett also addressed issues facing veterans in a tweet posted at 23:59 UTC: "There’s absolutely no reason why the VA should be relying on snail mail to send veterans important notices about the benefits they need to transition back to civilian life. My bipartisan Delivering Digitally to Our Veterans Act is a simple but effective solution to bring".
Barrett has served as U.S. Representative for Michigan’s 7th Congressional District since January 2023. The Working Families Tax Cuts referenced in his posts are part of broader federal efforts aimed at increasing after-tax income for lower- and middle-income households by expanding credits such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and Child Tax Credit (CTC). These measures are designed to provide economic support for working families nationwide.
The visit from Vice President J.D. Vance underscores ongoing engagement between federal officials and local communities regarding economic policy initiatives. Barrett’s mention of bipartisan legislation for veterans reflects continued congressional attention toward modernizing government communication methods with former service members.
