Warren Davidson, a U.S. Congressman representing Ohio's 8th District, shared his views on various matters in a series of tweets on April 9, 2025. Davidson, serving in Congress since replacing John Boehner in 2016, offered insights on fiscal plans and international relations.

He stated: "Here’s how I see the current plan being presented to the House, by the Senate and White House: 1.

In a subsequent tweet, also on April 9, 2025, Davidson addressed plans to raise the debt ceiling.

America will not."
