Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Missouri's 5th district, has shared his thoughts on various issues through a series of tweets. Cleaver, who has been in office since 2005 after succeeding Karen McCarthy, expressed his views on political and educational matters.
On November 25, 2024, Rep. Cleaver posed a rhetorical question regarding trust and protection with the tweet: “Will wolves deliver on their promise to protect sheep?”.
The following day, November 26, he commented on potential economic impacts under Donald Trump's leadership: "On day one, Donald Trump will raise prices on common goods for tens of millions of Americans across the country."
Later that same day, Cleaver addressed students in his district about higher education opportunities: "If you’re a student in #MO05 and interested in pursuing higher education, then make sure you fill out your FAFSA form to receive federal student aid!" He provided additional resources for those seeking more information.
