Rep. Jamie Raskin, a U.S. Congressman representing Maryland’s 8th district, has shared several thoughts on social media regarding leadership, disaster response, and political collaboration. These tweets reflect his ongoing engagement with community issues and national policies.

On November 20, 2024, Rep. Raskin expressed gratitude for the efforts of Jackie DeCarlo, CEO of Manna Food Center. He stated: "So thankful for the tremendous leadership of @MannaFoodCenter CEO Jackie DeCarlo and her passionate dedication to ending hunger in Montgomery County. Best wishes for your continuing journey, Jackie."

Later that day, he commented on the impartiality required in disaster aid response. He noted: "Hurricanes, wildfires and floods don't discriminate on the basis of party politics—neither should our disaster aid response. FEMA shows that our expert, merit-based civil service system works effectively to deliver relief to all Americans."

In another post from November 20, 2024, Rep. Raskin acknowledged his colleague Sarah McBride's resilience in Congress: "It's an honor to serve with @SarahEMcBride, a class act who is undaunted by all the temper tantrums and scapegoating. You may be the only House member from Delaware but your friends in Maryland have your back."
