Rep. Tim Burchett, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee’s 2nd district since 2019, recently shared his views on various political matters through a series of tweets. These posts reflect his stance on bureaucracy, congressional accountability, and fiscal responsibility.
On March 6, 2025, Rep. Burchett expressed support for a colleague from Georgia in her efforts to reform government structures. He stated: "The Chairwoman from Georgia is ready to gut the bureaucracy that would’ve ruined your children’s future. We are bringing back the moral compass and fiscal responsibility."
Later that day, he emphasized the need for transparency within Congress by advocating for investigations into its members. He remarked: "Why should we investigate members of Congress? Because the American public won't fully trust us until we do. They are done watching people come to Washington and fill their pockets by hitting licks on the American taxpayer."
On March 7, 2025, Rep. Burchett questioned whether Congress would take steps towards self-accountability. He posed a rhetorical question to his audience: "Let’s see if Congress will hold itself accountable. Any guesses as to whether this makes it to the floor?"
