Adriano Espaillat, a member of the U.S. Congress representing New York’s 13th district, has shared several tweets highlighting various social issues and commemorative events. These posts reflect his engagement in public health advocacy, cultural celebrations, and historical reflections.
On March 20, 2025, Espaillat addressed the disparities faced by Native American women in terms of HIV infection rates compared to their white counterparts. He stated: "Las mujeres indígenas estadounidenses tienen tres veces más probabilidades de morir de una infección por VIH que las mujeres blancas, lo que representa un fracaso de nuestro sistema de salud pública." He also emphasized his role as a member of the Equality Caucus working to protect investments in healthcare.
Later that day, Espaillat paid tribute to Judith Jamison in celebration of Women's History Month. He tweeted: "En honor al Mes de la Historia de la Mujer, celebramos a Judith Jamison, pionera de la danza moderna." He highlighted her contributions as an influential figure in modern dance and her leadership at Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater.
In another post on the same day, Espaillat referenced President Carter's enduring words with a succinct message: "Nearly 50 years later, President Carter’s words still stand true."
