Adriano Espaillat U.S. House of Representatives from New York's 13th district | Official U.S. House Headshot
Adriano Espaillat, who has been serving in the U.S. Congress representing New York's 13th District since 2017, expressed his views on various political issues through social media posts on April 9, 2025. Espaillat, a native of Santiago, Dominican Republic, living in Manhattan, utilized these posts to address concerns about fiscal policies and demonstrate support for a fellow politician.
On April 9, 2025, Espaillat showed his support for a member of the Congress Hispanic Caucus with his tweet: "El Caucus Hispano del Congreso apoya a Kilmar Abrego García".
Later that day, he criticized the Republican budget proposal in a tweet stating, "The Republican budget gives the top 0.1% a $314,000 tax break. Everyone else? Higher costs, fewer jobs, less security. It’s a cash grab—and working families are footing the bill." The tweet underscores the disparity in tax relief, highlighting the concern that economic burdens may disproportionately impact working families.
Espaillat reiterated his criticism of the republican fiscal plan in Spanish in another post on April 9, 2025. He wrote: "El presupuesto republicano otorga al 0.1% más rico una exención fiscal de $314,000 dólares. ¿Y a los demás? Costos más altos, menos empleos, menos seguridad. Es una estafa para sacar dinero —y las familias trabajadoras son las que están pagando la factura."
