Rep. Tom Tiffany, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Wisconsin's 7th district since 2020, recently shared his concerns on social media regarding energy policies and law enforcement challenges. Born in Wabasha, Minnesota, Tiffany has a background in state politics and holds a degree from the University of Wisconsin–River Falls.
On July 9, 2025, Rep. Tiffany posted about potential energy shortages: "@ENERGY warns Americans could face 800 hours of blackouts by 2030." He criticized the shift away from traditional energy sources such as coal, nuclear, and natural gas, suggesting that this transition could lead to increased prices and frequent power outages. He warned that if "the green fantasy wins," it will result in significant costs for Americans.

Later that day, Tiffany addressed rising violence against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents: "Assaults on ICE agents are up nearly 700% this year." He attributed this increase to what he described as "the Left’s violent rhetoric." In his statement, he expressed support for law enforcement officers who work to maintain national security.
Tom Tiffany's political career began in the Wisconsin State Assembly from 2011 to 2013 before serving in the Wisconsin State Senate until his election to Congress in 2020. At age 65, he resides in Minocqua.
