Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Washington’s 7th district since 2017, has recently shared her views on several pressing issues through social media. Her statements cover topics ranging from abortion laws to financial aid for students and corporate mergers.
On November 25, 2024, Rep. Jayapal expressed her concerns regarding Texas' abortion legislation in a tweet: "Texas’ extreme abortion ban has now caused three women to die. Porsha Ngumezi should be alive today — but Texas Republicans would rather strip away reproductive freedoms than save lives. This is unacceptable. We need nationwide abortion protections NOW."
The following day, on November 26, she addressed students about financial aid opportunities for the upcoming academic year: "STUDENTS: The 2025-2026 FAFSA form is now open! Visit https://t.co/u8p4ppefZv to get started on applying for a financial aid package."
Later that same day, Rep. Jayapal commented on corporate mergers and their impact on consumers and workers: "When Albertsons and Safeway merged in 2015, there were store closures, lost jobs, and higher prices. This time, as Albertsons and Kroger attempt a merger, I’ve pushed the Biden administration to challenge the deal and fight to protect workers and shoppers."
