Sen. Elissa Slotkin, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Michigan’s 7th district since 2019, has used her social media platform to share concerns about rising healthcare costs and federal government priorities.
On October 19, 2025, Slotkin posted about feedback she received from a constituent: "An educator living in Paris, MI wrote that her employer provided plan will increase by 16% or more starting January 1. Share your story: https://t.co/866HZY2sUf https://t.co/xZbCWxY7vp". Later the same day, she commented on public sentiment regarding the effectiveness of federal policies: "People feel the federal government isn’t doing things that help the average American. Including ruthlessly focusing on the middle class. https://t.co/z7xkIKMHWv".
The following morning, Slotkin addressed concerns over legislative decisions related to tax policy and healthcare funding: "They didn’t want to say it out loud: but in order to pay for permanent tax cuts for the wealthy, they had to cut health care for Americans. https://t.co/HzuBiUvRuC".
Slotkin, who was born in New York City in 1976 and currently resides in Lansing, holds a BA from Cornell University. She succeeded Mike Bishop as representative for Michigan's 7th District. Her recent posts reflect ongoing debates over healthcare affordability and the allocation of federal resources affecting middle-class Americans.
