Is there any specific reason why macros can't work in a statically typed language? How does Typed Racket handle this. Or does it not have macros?

Typed Racket is more like type annotations with a checking routine than anything, if you're writing a macro you want generality.

You achieve this by omitting the type annotation and reverting to normal Racket.

You can do macros in a statically typed language, but it would (and does) get ugly fast.
