Rep. Tim Burchett, who represents Tennessee's 2nd District in the U.S. Congress, recently shared a series of tweets expressing his views on various political issues. The tweets cover topics ranging from political accountability to government transparency and healthcare ethics.
On November 19, 2024, Rep. Burchett addressed the confirmation process for political appointees, stating: "It's not going to be easy for Senators to explain why they voted to confirm Merrick Garland and not Matt Gaetz. Make them lay it out and then hold them to account."
Later that day, he emphasized the importance of transparency in federal spending by stating: "If the federal government is spending millions of dollars on any program, the People deserve to know how much it costs and where we’re spending it. I penned a letter to @realDonaldTrump urging transparency from our Pentagon."
In a tweet dated November 20, 2024, Rep. Burchett commented on healthcare practices, saying: "It’s a mental illness and our doctors don’t care about the Hippocratic Oath. It’s about profits, profits, profits."
