Congressman Tom Barrett, who represents Michigan’s 7th Congressional District, recently used his social media platform to address both holiday greetings and economic policy updates.
On April 5, 2026, Barrett extended Easter wishes with a message stating, “Happy Easter from the Barrett family to you and yours! We hope your day is filled with joy, renewal, and reflection as we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is risen!”
In subsequent posts focused on tax policy, Barrett discussed the impact of the Working Families Tax Cuts in Michigan. On April 6, 2026, he wrote: “The Working Families Tax Cuts are empowering business owners to reinvest in their company, expand their footprint, and create jobs across Michigan.” The next day, April 7, he added: “The Working Families Tax Cuts made the Small Business Tax Deduction permanent so more business owners and entrepreneurs can grow, thrive, and take our local economy to new heights.”
The Working Families Tax Cuts have been promoted by supporters as a measure intended to provide financial relief for families while supporting small businesses through provisions such as a permanent Small Business Tax Deduction. These policies aim to stimulate local economies by allowing entrepreneurs and business owners greater flexibility in investment and expansion.
Barrett has consistently emphasized job creation and economic growth within his district through legislative measures like these tax cuts.
