Rep. Gwen Moore, currently representing Wisconsin’s 4th District in the U.S. Congress, shared a series of tweets on April 15, 2025, addressing tax policies and social welfare issues. Since joining Congress in 2005, Moore has been vocal about her concerns related to socioeconomic disparities and governmental policies. Her recent tweets focus on tax responsibilities, the Child Tax Credit (CTC), and federal budget priorities.

In her first post of the day, Rep. Moore posted visual content, though specific details are not disclosed in the text.

Later, on April 15 at 20:04, Moore asserted: “The richest 1% are responsible for 30% of all unpaid taxes—amounting to $205 billion annually. That’s $562 million in unpaid taxes per day, or $6,500 every second. By gutting the IRS, Donald Trump & Elon Musk are making it easier for their rich buddies to keep cheating. #TaxDay” This statement suggests systemic issues within the tax system, alleging policy influences that benefit wealthy individuals.

Shortly before 21:00, Rep. Moore commented on the Child Tax Credit, saying: “GOP got it twisted! Dems made the CTC fully refundable, cutting child poverty in half. It is the GOP who are blocking it from being restored. You know what the GOP budget really does? Slashes your Medicaid so billionaires can receive more tax cuts.” She criticized Republican actions on budget allocations while highlighting the benefits achieved under Democratic leadership.

Moore, a Milwaukee resident and Marquette University graduate with a career in Wisconsin’s political scene since the late 1980s, continues to address economic inequities through her legislative and social media efforts.
