Representative Tony Wied has recently shared his views and activities through a series of tweets, touching on legislative matters, community engagements, and political statements. His messages convey a focus on passing significant legislation and engaging with veterans.
On May 20, 2025, Rep. Wied addressed the issue of tax policy in a tweet where he criticized blue state representatives for their focus on the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction. He urged them to consider removing high-tax governors instead. In his message, Wied stated: "Enough grandstanding. You were offered a deal. Take it. Let's get this bill passed and move forward for the American people." He emphasized that constituents in Wisconsin's 8th district are not concerned about SALT.
Later that day, at 17:30 UTC, Wied expressed gratitude towards veterans and volunteers from VetsRoll!, an organization providing complimentary trips for World War II, Korea, and Vietnam veterans to visit military memorials in Washington D.C. He tweeted: "It was so great to meet with veterans and volunteers from VetsRoll! This organization provides trips at no-cost for World War II, Korea, and Vietnam veterans to visit military and war memorials in Washington, DC."
In another post made at 22:49 UTC on the same day, Wied stood by his colleagues from the CaucusMain group against what he described as misinformation spread by Democrats regarding a major legislative proposal referred to as "Big Beautiful Bill." He expressed optimism about its passage with the statement: "Proud to stand with my colleagues from @CaucusMain to dispel the many lies that have been spread about our Big Beautiful Bill by the Democrats and echoed in the mainstream media."
