Congressman Mike Lawler, representing New York's 17th district, shared a series of tweets on March 21, 2025, addressing international conflict, local business developments, and immigration policies. Lawler has been serving in the U.S. Congress since 2023 after succeeding Mondaire Jones.

On March 21, 2025, Congressman Mike Lawler commented on the geopolitical situation involving Israel and Iran. "In the last 24 hours, the Houthis have launched multiple ballistic missiles at Israel. Iran and its network of terrorist proxies must be held accountable. Am Yisrael Chai — wishing safety and strength to all in Israel tonight."

Later that day, Lawler highlighted a local event celebrating small business growth in his district. "My staff was excited to attend Pita Greek's ribbon cutting this week in Nanuet to celebrate a new small business opening in the Lower Hudson Valley!"

Addressing issues related to immigration and security policies, Lawler tweeted about consequences for those engaging in threatening behavior towards Jewish students. "A few simple facts: 1. Visas and green cards are a privilege. 2. If you harass and threaten Jewish students, provide support to, or spread a terrorist group's propaganda, you should expect severe consequences. Mahmoud Khalil played with fire and got scorched."
