Rep. Hank Johnson, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Georgia’s 4th district, shared his views on several pressing issues through a series of tweets on March 25, 2025.

In a tweet posted at 12:00:24 UTC, Rep. Johnson emphasized the importance of equitable compensation by stating "Everyone deserves equal pay for equal work. Period." He reiterated his support for the Paycheck Fairness Act alongside the Democratic Women's Caucus to ensure fair wages for women.
Later that day at 14:14:11 UTC, he expressed concern over recent policy decisions by prominent figures in government and business.
