Rep. Tony Wied, a public figure known for his active engagement on social media, recently shared his perspectives on Medicaid and small businesses through a series of tweets. These posts reflect his stance on current political issues and celebrate the contributions of entrepreneurs.

On May 6, 2025, Rep. Wied addressed claims regarding Medicaid cuts by criticizing the use of "fake news articles" as an argument against such cuts. He emphasized that "no one is taking away Medicaid from disabled people," aligning with comments made by @RepTiffany. Rep. Wied expressed disappointment in what he perceives as misinformation being spread to constituents, calling it "disgraceful." "Using fake news articles about Medicaid cuts is not the argument you think it is."

The following day, May 7, 2025, Rep. Wied took to Twitter to recognize Small Business Week by highlighting the achievements of entrepreneurs across the nation. His tweet celebrated their "hard work and accomplishments," reflecting his support for small business owners during this designated week of recognition. "During small business week, we celebrate the hard work and accomplishments of entrepreneurs and small businesses across our country!"

On May 8, 2025, Rep. Wied reiterated his position on Medicaid policies in another tweet. He clarified that Republicans aim to eliminate "waste, fraud and abuse" within the program rather than remove benefits from those in need. Additionally, he mentioned that expecting able-bodied adults to work or ensuring illegal aliens do not receive benefits should not be seen as controversial measures."Once again, no one is taking away Medicaid from those who are in need."

Additional information for Step 3: Tony Tiffany is a Republican Representative known for advocating fiscal responsibility.
