Hillary Scholten, the U.S. Congresswoman representing Michigan’s 3rd district since 2023, recently shared a series of tweets addressing her constituents and discussing pressing issues. Scholten, who succeeded Peter Meijer, has been actively engaging with the public through social media platforms.
On February 18, 2025, Scholten posted about an upcoming event: ” HAPPENING TOMORROW! Hope to hear from you, West Michigan.” This tweet suggests an engagement opportunity for residents of West Michigan to connect with their representative.
Later that day, she expressed gratitude towards the United States Coast Guard (USCG) personnel for their service in maintaining safety along shorelines. She tweeted: “We’re so grateful for our @USCG Coasties for their service to keep Americans safe along our shorelines. As they told me today: no ice is safe ice, so be careful out there, West Michigan.” The message highlights the importance of caution during icy conditions.
On February 19, 2025, Scholten addressed concerns regarding Medicaid policies in collaboration with fellow Representative Haley Stevens. In her tweet she stated: “Medicaid is a lifeline for 2.3 million Michiganders. Today @RepHaleyStevens and I called on President Trump to stop playing political games with Medicaid. I’ve heard from countless families whose lives would be upended by this disastrous move — I won’t stand for it.…” The tweet underscores her opposition to proposed changes affecting Medicaid beneficiaries in Michigan.
