Rep. Diana Harshbarger, who represents Tennessee’s 1st District in the U.S. Congress, has expressed her views on various national issues in a series of tweets. Harshbarger, who succeeded Phil Roe in 2021, has highlighted matters ranging from domestic manufacturing to healthcare reform and trade policies. Below is a summary of her statements made on April 2, 2025.
In a tweet on April 2, 2025, Harshbarger addressed the issue of domestic manufacturing by emphasizing the need for products labeled “Made in America” to genuinely adhere to that standard. She stated, “Made in America” should mean “Made in America.” Currently, only 25% of the car content purchased by Americans qualifies as such—President Trump is fixing that.”
Later the same day, Harshbarger turned her attention to Medicaid, highlighting concerns about the program’s sustainability. She tweeted, “The people who were meant to receive Medicaid are the ones getting the short end of the stick. We’re working to reform it so that those who were intended to receive these benefits—the most vulnerable—don’t lose them due to the unsustainable path Democrats have put this crucial https://t.co/flireVJifh”
Harshbarger also commented on international trade and economic policies, supporting President Trump’s actions. She remarked, “President Trump is bringing back the American Dream. Our taxpayers have been ripped off by foreign countries for far too long, but those days are over. President Trump is right to impose these reciprocal tariffs.”
