Representative Josh Williams, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Ohio, has recently used his social media platform to criticize fellow Ohio representative Marcy Kaptur and to discuss national policy issues.

On August 2, 2025, Williams posted a message directed at Kaptur’s vote on recent legislation: "By voting against the One Big Beautiful Bill, Marcy Kaptur betrayed every hardworking Ohio. Thanks to @AFPOhio for spotlighting this. Ohioans won’t forget that Marcy sold them out to radical, left-wing special interests in Washington."

Later that day, Williams highlighted an appearance on a talk show, stating: "Joined @wilkowmajority to discuss why the American Dream is still alive thanks to President Trump’s agenda. We talked about the dangers of illegal immigration, cutting wasteful spending, & ensuring government works for the people, not against." This comment reflects ongoing debates within Congress regarding immigration policy and federal budget priorities.

On August 4, 2025, Williams again criticized Kaptur’s legislative record: "While thousands of Ohioans are working harder than ever to get by, Marcy Kaptur left DC for the summer having accomplished NOTHING. She voted to keep the border open, and raise taxes on working families & businesses. After 43 years, it’s time to move on."

Marcy Kaptur has served as a U.S. Representative from Ohio since 1983 and is currently one of the longest-serving women in congressional history. The criticism from Williams centers on key political themes such as immigration policy and tax legislation—issues that have been focal points in recent Congressional sessions.

These posts come amid broader national debates over border security and economic policy. The “One Big Beautiful Bill” referenced by Williams appears tied to ongoing legislative efforts in Congress aimed at addressing these topics.
