In a tweet posted at 17:57 UTC, Rep. Walberg expressed his condolences to fellow congressman Michael C. Burgess and his family for the loss of Burgess's daughter Christine. He wrote: "My heart goes out to @michaelcburgess and his family on the heartbreaking loss of his beloved daughter Christine.

Later that day at 19:42 UTC, Rep. Walberg addressed concerns over rising antisemitic and anti-American rhetoric by stating: "These details are incredibly disturbing. When antisemitic and anti-American rhetoric becomes so accepted, it can lead to further escalation."
