Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland, representing Washington’s 10th district since 2021, shared her perspectives on recent political and economic developments through a series of tweets. Born in Seoul, South Korea, Strickland resides in Tacoma and holds degrees from the University of Washington and Clark Atlanta University.
On March 4, 2025, Congresswoman Strickland expressed skepticism about certain political claims by stating: “At least he’s telling a half truth. You can add Social Security and Medicaid to the list. @HouseGOP”.
Later that day, she commented on the economic implications of recent tariffs: “The Trump tariffs kicked in today, and our economy is about to get hit. Hard. He did say he’d run this country like his (failing) businesses.”
In anticipation of a presidential address to Congress, Strickland remarked: “Tonight @POTUS will address Congress and our country. And before you ask, no. He will not be sharing how he’s been lowering costs and helping Americans.”
