Rep. Morgan McGarvey, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Kentucky’s 3rd district, has recently shared his views and legislative efforts through a series of tweets. McGarvey, who succeeded John Yarmuth in 2023, has been vocal about the challenges faced by his constituents and personal experiences that have shaped his policy initiatives.

On March 24, 2025, Rep. McGarvey highlighted the economic uncertainty affecting over 20,000 workers in Kentucky due to trade policies. He stated: "Across Kentucky, over 20,000 farmers, coopers, and union workers are stuck in limbo, wondering if they'll have a job in a few weeks." He attributed these difficulties to what he described as "Trump's trade war chaos."

Later on the same day, McGarvey shared a personal story about his twins' time in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), which influenced his legislative actions. He tweeted: "My twins spent 99 days in the NICU — some of the most difficult days of our lives." This experience led him to introduce the NICU Baby Bill of Rights alongside Rep. Houchin.

In a subsequent tweet on March 24th at nearly the same time as his previous post, McGarvey directed followers to additional information provided by Rep. Houchin: @RepHouchin Read more: https://t.co/oaSej26IPs
