Hillary Scholten, currently serving as a U.S. Congresswoman for Michigan’s 3rd district, has been vocal about her concerns regarding former President Donald Trump’s policies. Her recent tweets reflect her stance on the impact of these policies on American families and healthcare.

On March 4, 2025, Scholten expressed her apprehension about Trump’s address to Congress. She stated that behind his slogans and promises, “his agenda will devastate women and families across America.” She criticized the efforts of Trump and House Republicans in this regard.

Later that evening, Scholten announced that Vanessa Greene would be attending Trump’s speech as her guest. She described Greene as “a trailblazer in the fight toward health care equity,” emphasizing the struggles faced by West Michiganders under Trump’s policies.

In another tweet posted on March 5, 2025, Scholten accused Trump of failing to reduce costs for Americans. She noted that many residents from West Michigan have felt financial pressure since Trump assumed office and warned that “things are about to get worse with his new tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China.”
