Rep. Eric Burlison, representing Missouri’s 7th district in the U.S. Congress, recently took to social media to express his opinions on various topics. Since succeeding Billy Long in 2023, Burlison has been actively addressing his views, particularly on issues central to his political agenda.

In a tweet from March 28, 2025, Burlison commented on the situation called “Signal Gate,” dismissing it as an overblown issue. He wrote, “Signal Gate has been grossly exaggerated. The overreaction is pure political theater, further eroding the already dwindling credibility of the gotcha media.”

Later the same day, Burlison shared his legislative efforts to address what he perceives as unconstitutional regulations. At 17:00 UTC, he tweeted about collaborating with fellow legislators to remove the $200 tax stamp on NFA items, asserting, “I’m working with many of my colleagues right now to eliminate the $200 tax stamp on NFA items under reconciliation. We will do what it takes to undo the unconstitutional regulations of the NFA. Pass H.R. 335. Repeal the NFA.”

Additionally, at 19:11 UTC, Rep. Burlison retweeted a complimentary post about the Vice President, captioned, “Masterclass from @VP “ This tweet reflects his engagement with the public dialogue concerning national leadership.
