Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland used her social media platform on July 11, 2025, to issue a series of critical statements regarding current federal policies and decisions. The posts addressed topics including education funding, U.S. foreign policy support for Ukraine, and the impact of tariffs on the American economy.
In a post at 17:06 UTC, Strickland criticized Secretary of Education McMahon and President Biden with the statement “Stop stealing from our schools and students, @EDSecMcMahon and @POTUS.” She did not elaborate further within the tweet.
At 19:06 UTC, Strickland commented on actions by the Secretary of Defense regarding assistance to Ukraine. She stated “Performative and unserious. Did the drone deliver @SecDef a thank you note from Putin for withholding assistance to our ally Ukraine?”
Later that day at 20:04 UTC, Strickland addressed President Biden’s tariff policies. In her message she wrote “.@POTUS is threatening our stability with his tariffs. Again. Tariffs = higher taxes for Americans. Tariffs = insecurity for our local businesses. Tariffs = a crushed economy.”
