Adriano Espaillat, a U.S. Congressman representing New York's 13th district, shared his views on the role of the judiciary and celebrated Women's History Month through a series of tweets. Espaillat has been serving in Congress since 2017 after succeeding Charles Rangel and has previously held positions in the New York State Assembly and Senate.

On March 19, 2025, Espaillat expressed his concerns about political interference in judicial matters. He stated, "Estados Unidos siempre ha confiado en los tribunales para forjar su propio camino, para bien o para mal. ¿Pero destituir a los jueces solo por estar en desacuerdo con sus decisiones? Eso no es justicia; es una peligrosa toma del poder." He emphasized that politics should not interfere with justice.

Later that day, Espaillat recognized the contributions of women crossing guards in his district during Women's History Month. He tweeted at 16:00 UTC, "This Women’s History Month, we celebrate the incredible women crossing guards of NY-13 who go above and beyond to keep our children and communities safe." He thanked them for their dedication and commitment to safety.

In another tweet at 17:39 UTC, he reiterated this sentiment in Spanish, stating, "Este Mes de la Historia de la Mujer, celebramos a las increíbles guardias de cruce escolar del distrito NY-13 que se esfuerzan al máximo para mantener seguros a nuestros niños y comunidades." This highlights his appreciation for their daily efforts.
