Adriano Espaillat, a U.S. Congressman representing New York’s 13th district since 2017, has shared his views on various topics through a series of tweets. Espaillat succeeded Charles Rangel and has been active in both the New York State Assembly and Senate prior to his current role.

On February 19, 2025, Espaillat criticized the Republican budget plan for 2025. He stated that “Los republicanos han publicado su plan presupuestario para 2025 y está claro que están poniendo a los estadounidenses comunes en último lugar.”

Later that day, he announced an event related to Black History Month celebrations. He tweeted about the participation of Sing Harlem at the Apollo Stages at the Victoria, emphasizing the importance of showcasing Black talent and culture: ” @SingHarlem will join this year’s Black History Month Celebration at the Apollo Stages at the Victoria. You don’t want to miss this year’s showcase of Black Talent & Culture! RSVP Here: https://t.co/Ax7dO31kMc”

In another tweet on February 19, Espaillat made a pointed remark regarding former President Donald Trump by stating: “Trump is not the king and this is not a monarchy.”
