Rep. Tom Tiffany, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Wisconsin's 7th district, has been vocal on social media with his opinions on a variety of issues. Having served since 2020, Tiffany succeeded Sean Duffy and prior to his congressional career, served in both the Wisconsin State Assembly and Senate. Tiffany, a longtime Wisconsin resident educated at the University of Wisconsin–River Falls, uses his platform to discuss policies and legislation impacting his constituents and the wider United States.

On March 27, 2025, Tiffany expressed his views on gender-specific spaces, stating, "ONLY biological women should have access to female spaces, such as girls’ locker rooms. Any public school that refuses to comply should have its federal funding revoked. This is just common sense." The statement underlines his belief in separate spaces based on biological gender, tied to federal education funding compliance.

The following day, March 28, 2025, Tiffany turned his focus to fiscal policies, particularly regarding federal government spending. He praised the efforts of an unnamed organization, stating, "DOGE is doing excellent work in policing the ridiculous expenditures of your tax dollars. Why are so many Democrats against the push to right-size the federal government and reduce fraud?" This tweet reflects Tiffany's advocacy for reducing government expenditure and addressing what he perceives as financial inefficiencies.

Later on March 28, 2025, he criticized the Biden administration's process regarding Afghan refugees, sharing his doubts about the thoroughness of vetting processes. He commented, "Once again, we see that the Afghan 'vetting' wasn’t as extreme as the Biden administration promised us it was. Or maybe they didn’t do any vetting at all." This post suggests a skepticism about the administration's handling of refugee entry protocols.
