Adriano Espaillat, a U.S. Representative serving New York's 13th district, recently expressed concerns on social media regarding the potential impacts of the House Republican budget proposal. In a series of tweets dated February 13, 2025, Espaillat addressed issues related to healthcare and food security as well as community rights awareness.
On February 13, 2025, Espaillat tweeted that "The House Republican budget takes health care and food away from millions of kids, parents, and seniors. By making huge cuts to Medicaid, it will drive up costs for middle class families who are already struggling to make ends meet." He highlighted the adverse effects these proposed cuts could have on vulnerable populations.
Later that day, at 15:03:52 UTC, Espaillat reiterated his stance in Spanish with another tweet stating "El presupuesto de los republicanos de la Cámara priva de atención médica y alimentos a millones de niños, padres y personas mayores. Al hacer enormes recortes a Medicaid, aumentará los costos para las familias de clase media que ya están luchando para llegar a fin de mes." This message reinforced his earlier point about the implications for middle-class families.
In another post on February 13 at 17:12:54 UTC, he shared information about an initiative aimed at educating the public on their legal rights. The tweet read "U.S. Rep.
