Hillary Scholten, a Congresswoman representing Michigan’s 3rd district, has been active on social media, discussing various topics of public interest. She has expressed her stance on transparency in government operations, advocated for heart health awareness, and announced an extension for a community initiative.

On February 7, 2025, Scholten addressed concerns regarding the CLEAR Act and its implications for agencies like DOGE. In her tweet, she stated: “If President Trump, Elon Musk, and their loyalists at DOGE are working in the American people’s best interest, my bill shouldn’t scare them. Let’s pass the CLEAR Act so agencies like DOGE are subject to FOIA requests. The American public deserves to know where their taxpayer…”

The following day on February 8, 2025, she encouraged participation in #WearRedDay to raise awareness about cardiovascular disease among women. Her tweet emphasized the importance of funding research: “Let’s see your red, West Michigan, it’s #WearRedDay for heart health! Cardiovascular disease is the #1 killer of American women, so let’s continue funding research so we can one day conquer this awful disease.”

Later that day on February 8th, Scholten announced an extension for submissions to her Valentine for Veteran initiative. She tweeted: “DEADLINE EXTENDED: We’re extending our deadline for Valentine for Veteran submissions to WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12th to ensure there’s enough time to get all of the thoughtful valentines in. More below on specifics!”
