Rep. Carol Miller, representing West Virginia's 1st district in the U.S. Congress, recently shared her views on various issues through a series of tweets. Miller, who has been serving since 2019 after succeeding Evan Jenkins, addressed topics ranging from trade agreements to medical education and digital trade policies.

On March 26, 2025, Rep. Miller highlighted the impact of the absence of U.S. trade agreements in the Indo-Pacific region on American companies such as Harley-Davidson. During a Ways and Means Committee hearing, she questioned Harley-Davidson's CFO about this issue.

Later that day, Miller expressed her support for equitable opportunities in Graduate Medical Education programs by reintroducing the FAIR Act alongside her colleagues. This legislation aims to ensure fair treatment for applicants from Osteopathic Medicine schools when considering residency slots. "Graduate Medical Education programs should give equal opportunities to med students when considering them for residency slots."

In another tweet posted on March 26, 2025, Rep. Miller addressed concerns over foreign countries' trade policies targeting U.S. digital companies unfairly. She specifically mentioned Canada and South Korea and sought advice from the President of USCSI on measures to protect American businesses from these biased strategies."Foreign countries like Canada and South Korea are unfairly targeting U.S. digital companies in their trade policies."
