Tim Walberg U.S. House of Representatives from Michigan | Official U.S. House Headshot
U.S. Congressman Tim Walberg, representing Michigan's 5th district, recently shared his views on pressing issues via social media. Serving in this capacity since 2011 and formerly a member of the Michigan House of Representatives, Walberg has maintained active involvement in topics ranging from tax policies to community security.
On April 15, 2025, Walberg addressed Tax Day concerns, stating "It’s Tax Day, and I’m working to extend the 2017 Trump tax cuts to prevent the largest tax hike in American history. If these vital benefits expire, then the average Michigander would face a 25% tax increase." The statement underscores his commitment to financial measures aimed at preventing significant tax increases for Michigan residents.
The following day, on April 16, 2025, Walberg discussed his involvement with local law enforcement about the ongoing drug crisis, mentioning his support for new legislative measures. He explained, "I recently sat down with Jackson's new police chief, Chris Simpson, to discuss how we can address the illicit drug epidemic affecting our community. I supported and the House passed the HALT Fentanyl Act to provide law enforcement officers with the tools they need to keep our" community safe from drug-related issues.
On April 17, 2025, Walberg expressed his opinions on immigration and gang violence in a tweet that emphasized his stance on national security. He stated, "Kilmar Abrego Garcia is not a 'Maryland man.' He was illegally in the U.S. and a member of MS-13, a transnational criminal gang known for committing unspeakable crimes. Thank you @RealDonaldTrump for continuing to stand against gang violence, alleged domestic abuse, and other" threats.
Tim Walberg's political efforts are fueled by his long-standing service rooted in both state and national governance, and his educational background, having graduated from Taylor University with a BA. Walberg, who was born in Chicago, Illinois, and currently resides in Tipton, Michigan, continues to apply his experience to address both local and national issues.
