Marilyn Strickland, currently serving as a U.S. Congresswoman representing Washington’s 10th district, has been active on social media sharing her recent engagements and views. She succeeded Denny Heck in this role in 2021 and is known for her involvement in local and national issues.

On March 12, 2025, Strickland tweeted about her meeting with Pierce County Executive Ryan Mello, Councilmember Robyn Denson, and Thurston County Commissioners Carolina Mejia and Wayne Fournier. She expressed enthusiasm about the presence of South Sound representatives in Washington D.C., stating: “Met with @PierceCo Executive Ryan Mello and Councilmember Robyn Denson, and @ThurstonCounty Commissioners Carolina Mejia and Wayne Fournier. The #SouthSound is showing up in DC!”

Later that day, Strickland shared a critical opinion about prominent figures Elon Musk and President Biden. She posted: “I said what I said. @elonmusk and @potus only care about themselves.” This statement highlights her willingness to express candid viewpoints on influential personalities.

In another tweet from the same day, Strickland addressed the political dynamics surrounding a potential government shutdown. She attributed responsibility to the Republican Party by stating: “Republicans have the House, the Senate, and the White House. If there is a government shutdown, it is their fault.”
