Senator Eric Schmitt has recently shared a series of tweets addressing significant topics, including investments in home care services and economic performance under President Trump's administration. These posts provide insights into legislative developments and employment trends.

On July 2, 2025, Senator Schmitt tweeted about the expansion of options for families and interim care, stating "By expanding options for families & providing interim care, we’ll be able to serve more Americans who rely on specialized care." He highlighted this initiative as "the largest investment in home care services" and expressed anticipation for the House to pass the bill so it can be sent to President Trump's desk.

The following day, July 3, 2025, he commented on the economic achievements under President Trump with a tweet declaring that "The Trump economy has beat expectations for the FOURTH month in a row!" He cited key statistics: "147,000 new jobs added in June," an unemployment rate lower than expected, and higher-than-expected wages. The senator concluded with "Promises made, promises kept."

Later that day, Schmitt discussed employment demographics over recent months. He noted that "In the first six months of 2024, foreign-born workers made up nearly half of all new U.S. jobs." Contrastingly, during President Trump's presidency's first six months, native-born employment increased by 2,079,000 while foreign-born employment decreased by 543,000. Schmitt emphasized these changes by stating "We're taking back our country."
