Pramila Jayapal, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Washington’s 7th district, has been vocal on social media regarding key political issues. On March 13, 2025, she shared her views on recent legislative actions and administrative policies.

In a tweet posted at 18:18 UTC, Jayapal emphasized the importance of clarity from Senators regarding a Republican spending bill. She stated that "the cloture vote is the only one where Dems actually have leverage to stand up to this disastrous Republican spending bill." She thanked Senator Mark Warner for his stance and advocated for voting against cloture on the bill. "This is the kind of clarity we need from every Senator."

Later that day at 19:02 UTC, Jayapal reiterated her stance in another tweet by expressing gratitude towards Senator Chris Van Hollen for his position against the same funding bill. She asserted once more her opposition to cloture and described the legislation as "terrible." "Thank you @ChrisVanHollen. Exactly the clarity we need."

At 19:31 UTC, Jayapal turned her attention to an incident involving immigration enforcement under the Trump Administration. She criticized the deportation of a child who was a U.S. citizen with brain cancer while on her way to an emergency medical checkup because her parents were undocumented. She described this action as "cruel," "inhumane," and "evil." "This is the Trump Administration."
