Rep. Scott Perry, currently serving Pennsylvania’s 10th district in the U.S. Congress, has shared a series of tweets expressing his views on recent political developments.

On March 4, 2025, Rep. Scott Perry criticized the need for stringent measures to facilitate peace negotiations. He expressed his discontent by stating: “It’s a SHAME the screws have to be tightened to get to a place of negotiating peace.”
Later that day, Perry addressed statements made by Hakeem Jeffries regarding Medicaid funding. He challenged Jeffries’ assertions and highlighted financial concerns associated with Medicaid payments. Perry tweeted: “Hakeem Jeffries plans to throw more Democrat donor money down the drain. Let’s dispel his lies — again: House Republicans want to IMPROVE Medicaid, not ‘cut’ it.” He further provided data on improper Medicaid payments projecting $1.3 trillion over ten years.
In another tweet on March 4, 2025, Rep. Scott Perry criticized MSNBC’s coverage of freedom of speech topics. He suggested that the network was disconnected from public sentiment: “WATCH: The fake news media is so out of touch with the American People, MSNBC had to air a whole segment on how freedom of speech works.”
