Rep. Eric Burlison, the current representative of Missouri’s 7th district, recently expressed views on governmental communication and taxation through social media. Burlison, who started his tenure in the U.S. Congress in 2023 after serving in the Missouri House of Representatives and Senate, shared concise messages on Twitter concerning public funding and tax practices.

In a tweet from April 11, 2025, Burlison commented on public communication approaches, stating, "We are long past the era of town criers, just as we are beyond the need for left-wing echo chambers squandering taxpayer funds." This statement possibly alludes to concerns about the use of government resources in public messaging.

Another brief post by Burlison on the same day refrained from additional commentary and contained a single link, https://t.co/BOdGzHMvNa, the purpose and content of which remain unspecified from the post itself.

Subsequently, on April 14, 2025, Burlison reflected on national fiscal policies with his views on taxation, proclaiming, "The 'pay your fair share' mantra is a tired distraction. No nation has ever taxed itself into prosperity." The perspective underscores a critical stance often associated with discussions about economic growth and tax reforms.

Rep. Eric Burlison continues to serve from his base in Ozark, Missouri, and brings with him an educational background from Missouri State University, where he earned both undergraduate and graduate degrees.
