Eric Burlison, a U.S. Congressman representing Missouri's 7th district since 2023, has been vocal on several key issues through his social media presence. His recent tweets address topics ranging from whistleblower protection to immigration policies and educational equality.

On November 20, 2024, Burlison emphasized the importance of protecting whistleblowers who report Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP). He stated, "It's extremely important that UAP whistleblowers feel like they can come forward without having their lives destroyed for simply telling the truth. We must pass the UAP Whistleblower Protection Act."

Later that day, Burlison commented on border policies in relation to a tragic incident involving Laken Riley. He expressed his stance by saying, "Thank goodness, but Laken Riley should still be alive. If it weren't for the horrific border policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, she would be. Mass deportations of monsters like Jose Ibarra cannot come soon enough."

In another tweet posted on November 20, 2024, Burlison addressed issues related to educational policy and equality. He criticized the focus on equality of outcome over opportunity and announced his support for legislation aimed at dismantling diversity initiatives. He wrote, "Instead of discussing equality of opportunity, we're now focused on the equality of outcome. You can't dictate an equality of outcome unless you eliminate the equality of opportunity. That's why I am a co-sponsor of @RepCloudTX bill, the Dismantle DEI Act."
