Rep. Mary Miller, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Illinois’ 15th district, shared her views on various political issues through a series of tweets on May 16, 2025. Miller, who has been in office since 2021 after succeeding John Shimkus, addressed topics ranging from legal actions against former FBI Director James Comey to immigration and social benefits policies.
In a tweet posted at 01:42:40 UTC, Rep. Miller expressed strong disapproval of a post by James Comey, calling for his arrest. She stated, "James Comey should be ARRESTED for this post!! It’s clear the Democrats are after President Trump’s life. OUTRAGEOUS."
Later that day, at 16:20:59 UTC, she addressed immigration and welfare policies. She asserted that "Illegal aliens shouldn’t get free benefits, and able-bodied Americans shouldn’t just sit at home." Emphasizing her support for former President Trump's vision for America, she declared the need to restore a strong working nation with the phrase "No more handouts. No more excuses. America First."
In another statement made at 20:29:35 UTC, Rep. Miller highlighted her legislative efforts within the Ag Reconciliation Bill to prevent illegal immigrants from receiving SNAP benefits.
