Rep. Diana Harshbarger, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee’s 1st district, has recently shared her views on government efficiency and political dynamics through a series of tweets. These statements reflect her stance on governmental operations and energy policies under the current administration.

On March 12, 2025, Rep. Harshbarger tweeted about efforts to improve government efficiency by highlighting the work of DOGE in identifying inefficiencies within departments. She stated, "DOGE is uncovering the inadequacies department by department, making recommendations on where to cut the fat. This is helping make our government more efficient for the American people."

Later that day, she expressed criticism towards Democrats regarding their approach to governance and support for former President Trump and Republicans' efforts to rectify what she perceives as past mistakes. She wrote, "Democrats aiming to shut the government down at the cost of the American people should be a surprise to no one. Meanwhile, President Trump and Republicans are committed to getting our country back on track from the mess they’ve made."

On March 13, 2025, Rep. Harshbarger emphasized energy policy as crucial for economic recovery under Trump's leadership. She remarked on this commitment by stating, "Unleashing American energy is a key part of the plan to restore our economy, and President Trump has said from day one that he will make this happen. Promises made, promises kept."
