Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a U.S. Congresswoman representing Washington's 7th district since 2017, has shared her perspectives on recent political events via social media. Born in Chennai and residing in Seattle, Jayapal is known for her active engagement on national issues.
On March 5, 2025, Rep. Jayapal provided a summary of former President Donald Trump's Joint Address to Congress through a tweet. She commented: "I’m working to gut Medicaid and Social Security so I can pass tax cuts for myself and my billionaire friends."
Later the same day, at 15:57 UTC, she expressed condolences regarding the passing of notable individuals from Texas: "This is deeply sad news. My heart goes out to his family, his loved ones, and to the people of Texas who have lost two great champions in such a short time."
In another tweet posted at 16:22 UTC, Rep. Jayapal criticized actions attributed to Trump concerning financial misappropriation from global life-saving programs. She stated: "Trump tried to steal money — for work that had already been done — from programs that save lives across the world. Even his majority rightwing, handpicked Supreme Court knows this is illegal."
