Rep. Lucy McBath, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Georgia’s 7th district, posted a series of updates on her official Twitter account between April 14 and April 16, 2026. The tweets covered topics ranging from Holocaust remembrance to student engagement and workforce development.
On April 14, 2026, McBath marked Yom HaShoah with a message of remembrance and solidarity: “On Yom HaShoah, we honor the memories of those who lost their lives during the horrors of the Holocaust. We stand with the survivors and their families, and recommit ourselves to confronting antisemitism and hatred in all its forms. May we never forget.”
Later that day, she addressed high school students in Georgia’s 6th district about an opportunity to participate in a congressional art competition: “Attention all GA06 high school students: don’t miss the chance to participate in my 2026 Congressional Art Competition! Winning artwork will be displayed in the U.S. Capitol and my Washington and Atlanta offices. For more details about how to participate, see the flyer below or https://t.co/thVjZtMsDs”
On April 16, McBath discussed challenges facing American workers and students navigating current workforce systems: “Our workforce system has become increasingly difficult to navigate for both students and families. Americans deserve clear pathways to the skills they need to succeed. That’s why I am proud to introduce the bipartisan CREATES Act. This bill helps states create and maintain”
McBath has represented Georgia’s 7th District since replacing Karen Handel in 2019. She was re-elected in 2024 after defeating Jeff Criswell by a significant margin, receiving nearly three-quarters of the vote (74.7% vs. 25.3%). Born in Joliet, Illinois in 1960, McBath is now based in Marietta and holds a BA from Virginia State University.
