Eric Burlison, currently serving as a U.S. Congressman for Missouri’s 7th district, has expressed his views on several national issues through recent tweets. Burlison, who took office in 2023 after succeeding Billy Long, has previously served in the Missouri House of Representatives and the Missouri Senate.
On November 22, 2024, Burlison shared his critical stance on the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), stating “The ATF has been a disaster for the American people and our God-given Second Amendment rights. It should absolutely be abolished.”
Two days later, on November 23, 2024, Burlison extended his congratulations to Russ Vought for his nomination as President Trump’s Office of Management and Budget director. He tweeted: “Congratulations to @RussVought on his nomination to serve again as President Trump’s OMB director. I can’t wait to work with him to restore fiscal sanity, end burdensome regulations, and dismantle the Deep State.”
On November 25, 2024, Burlison simply stated “I agree!” in response to an unspecified context.
