Marcy Kaptur, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Ohio's 9th district since 1983, has recently addressed several pressing issues via social media. Born in Toledo, Ohio in 1946 and an alumna of the University of Wisconsin–Madison, Kaptur continues to voice her concerns on matters affecting her constituents.

On May 20, 2025, Rep. Marcy Kaptur expressed sorrow over a tragic rail accident in Fremont, Ohio. She reported that "three lives have been lost, with a fourth hospitalized in critical condition". She extended her condolences to the families affected and acknowledged the efforts of first responders.

The following day on May 21, she criticized legislative procedures related to budget discussions. According to Kaptur's tweet at 05:00 AM UTC, "Sunday at 10 PM the Budget Committee reconvened because nothing says 'confidence' like hiding cruel cuts in the dead of night." She questioned the timing and transparency of Republican meetings concerning their bill advancement.

Later that same day at 14:44 UTC, Kaptur voiced concern about potential impacts of proposed budget cuts on vulnerable individuals. She highlighted one case involving Bonnie and Michael from her constituency: "The cruel bonanza for Billionaires Budget Bill will hurt constituents like Bonnie...who is deaf, neurodivergent, and suffers multiple chronic conditions." This example underscored her opposition to what she described as "unreliable onerous paperwork."
