Congressman Michael Cloud, representing Texas' 27th district since 2018, recently shared updates on his legislative activities through a series of tweets. Known for his stance against divisive ideologies and wasteful spending, Cloud has been vocal about his initiatives in Congress.

On November 21, 2024, Congressman Cloud announced that he would be appearing on Fox Business to discuss the progress of his Dismantle DEI Act. The bill had successfully passed out of the GOP Oversight Committee the previous day. He encouraged viewers to tune in to the broadcast by stating, "About to join Fox Business to talk about my Dismantle DEI Act passing out of @GOPoversight Committee yesterday."

Later that day, at 14:27 UTC, Cloud elaborated on the purpose of his legislation. He emphasized its intent to eliminate what he described as a "divisive and un-American ideology" while aiming to restore merit-based practices within federal government operations. He reiterated this goal in a tweet saying, "My Dismantle DEI Act will slash this divisive and un-American ideology and restore merit within the federal government."

By evening, at 19:46 UTC, Congressman Cloud expressed satisfaction with developments related to reducing unnecessary expenditures. In another tweet, he highlighted the importance of fiscal responsibility across all levels of government with the statement "Great news! Wasteful spending needs to be cut at every level."
