Rep. Sharice Davids, a Congress member representing Kansas’ 3rd District since 2019, recently communicated her ongoing efforts and concerns through a series of tweets. Born in Frankfurt, West Germany, and residing in Roeland Park, Davids continues to focus on economic and community-strengthening initiatives, leveraging her background from the University of Missouri-Kansas City and Cornell University.

On April 6, 2025, Rep. Davids tweeted that "Kansas runs on hardworking workers — and I’m making sure we keep it that way. And I’m doing so by partnering with local folks who are dedicated to a more secure future for every Kansan." This indicates her commitment to collaborating with local stakeholders for the benefit of Kansans.

On April 7, 2025, she expressed concern over a proposed shipping policy, stating,"I support strengthening U.S. manufacturing — but a new shipping proposal would do the opposite. It risks Kansas jobs, hurts our farmers, and hands global shipping power to foreign competitors like China. I'm urging @USTradeRep to fix it before it's too late." She is advocating for changes to protect local employment and maintain competitive advantages.

Lastly, on the same day, Rep. Davids referenced further details on the potential policy’s impact, tweeting, "Read more here on how this policy would negatively impact a Kansas company: https://t.co/J8jlI9RhNJ".
