Sarasota Review

Congressman Greg Steube, a Republican representative known for his conservative stance on fiscal policies and law enforcement, recently expressed his views through a series of tweets. His statements address issues ranging from taxation to law enforcement and property taxes.

On July 8, 2025, Congressman Steube emphasized the importance of supporting American startups by advocating for lower taxes. He stated, "Investing in America shouldn't be punished. Startups need capital to grow and hire, but high taxes make that nearly impossible." He introduced a bill aimed at capping federal capital gains taxes at 15% to facilitate investment and job creation in the United States.

The following day, on July 9, 2025, Steube criticized what he perceives as escalating hostility towards law enforcement agencies. In his tweet, he remarked on the rhetoric surrounding police and ICE agents: "Democrats’ rhetoric has gone from 'Defund the Police' to attacking the police, and now attacks on ICE are up 700%." He defended ICE agents by stating they are fulfilling their duties as per President Trump's mandate to manage criminal activity.

Later that day, Congressman Steube shared his thoughts on property taxes. He described them as an unnecessary financial burden on homeowners: "Property taxes are basically rent you pay to the government for a home you already own." He argued that eliminating these taxes would significantly benefit Florida homeowners by reducing their financial obligations.

In these tweets, Congressman Greg Steube continues to promote legislative changes aimed at reducing tax burdens and supporting law enforcement agencies.
