Rep. Tom Tiffany, a U.S. Congressman representing Wisconsin's 7th district since 2020, has expressed his views on various policy issues through a series of tweets posted on December 4, 2024. Tiffany, who succeeded Sean Duffy and previously served in the Wisconsin State Assembly and Senate, shared his perspectives on government spending, immigration policies, and visa regulations.
In a tweet dated December 4, 2024, at 14:26:09 UTC, Rep. Tiffany emphasized the need for Republicans to have the determination to cut what he considers wasteful spending. He specifically mentioned that there should be "NO taxpayer money for Ukraine" and "NO funding for NGOs aiding illegal immigration," as well as "NO funds for drag shows in Ecuador."
Later that day at 16:41:27 UTC, Tiffany criticized USCIS Director Ur Jaddou's stance on the Biden administration's immigration policies. He claimed that these policies have contributed to "one of the largest human trafficking operations in the world." Despite this claim, he noted that Jaddou expressed she has "NO REGRETS" and is "proud" of their efforts.
In another tweet posted at 19:58:15 UTC on the same day, Rep. Tiffany addressed an Obama-era policy allowing Chinese nationals to visit the Northern Mariana Islands without a visa. He highlighted that this has led to instances where Chinese women deliver babies on these islands to gain U.S. citizenship for their children. He asserted that this "birthright loophole MUST END."
