Rep. Jason Smith, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Missouri’s 8th district, recently expressed his views on various political issues through a series of tweets. The posts reflect his positions on taxation, government reform, and border security policies.
On December 5, 2024, Rep. Smith emphasized that "Americans shouldn’t be penalized for passing their farm onto their children, expanding their small business, or growing their families." He credited the Trump tax cuts with providing financial benefits to American farmers, small business owners, and working families.
Later that day, Smith addressed the mandate given to Republicans by voters: "77 million Americans gave Republicans a mandate to reform Government." He stressed the importance of significant action rather than procrastination by stating that "Congress cannot continue to kick the can down the road."
On December 6, 2024, Rep. Smith criticized Democrats' stance on border security policies implemented under President Trump. He stated that "Democrats across the country are vowing to not comply with President Trump’s border security policies." He further remarked that Americans had clearly voiced their support for strong borders.
