On May 16, 2025, Rep. Tiffany addressed proposals concerning reparations payments. He criticized these initiatives by tweeting "Democrats want to hand out trillions in race-based 'reparations' payments." Labeling such measures as irrational and unjust, he asserted that "It's wrong for the government to pick winners and losers based on skin color."
