Adriano Espaillat, presently a member of the U.S. Congress representing New York's 13th district, has been active on social media addressing international and domestic issues. His recent tweets highlight concerns about a deportation case and his stance on a legislative act regarding election integrity.

On April 10, 2025, Espaillat drew attention to a situation involving a deported Maryland father, as he stated, "Democrats Are Directly Urging El Salvador’s President to Release a Deported Maryland Father". This situation highlights the ongoing issue of immigration and deportation policies that affect American families.

In another tweet from the same date, Espaillat reiterated his efforts in Spanish, saying, "Los Demócratas Instan Directamente al Presidente de El Salvador a que Libere a un Padre Deportado de Maryland". By doing so, he emphasized congressional intervention in international diplomacy to address humanitarian concerns.

Additionally, Espaillat expressed his opposition to the SAVE Act on April 10, 2025, labeling it as voter suppression. He noted that "The SAVE Act doesn’t protect our elections—it threatens them," articulating his intention to vote against it due to the barriers it poses to eligible voters.

These communications reflect Espaillat's ongoing commitment to both international advocacy and the protection of voter rights domestically. Espaillat, 68, originally from Santiago, Dominican Republic, has served in various political capacities since 1997 and remains a prominent figure in Congress.
