Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Washington's 7th district, has recently shared her views on various pressing issues through social media posts. These tweets cover topics such as clinical studies, data protection legislation, and concerns over Social Security benefits.

On February 6, 2025, Rep. Jayapal highlighted the impact of halted clinical studies due to funding issues. She stated that "Clinical studies are frozen, 'leaving people around the world with experimental drugs and medical products in their bodies, cut off from the researchers who were monitoring them.' The admin must reinstate USAID funding immediately—people will die without it."

In a tweet posted on February 7, 2025, Rep. Jayapal announced new legislative efforts by Democrats aimed at protecting sensitive data and countering Elon Musk’s alleged influence over the Treasury. She expressed her support for this initiative by stating "NEW: Democrats are taking action to protect your sensitive data and stop Elon Musk’s Treasury takeover. I’m proud to cosponsor this bill, and I’ll keep fighting to ensure your information is kept away from a power hungry, unelected billionaire."

She warned against potential threats posed by former President Donald Trump and Elon Musk with her statement "Trump and Elon Musk are coming to steal your Social Security benefits.
