Rep. Jamie Raskin, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Maryland's 8th district, recently shared his views on various topics through a series of tweets. Known for his active engagement in political discourse, Raskin addressed issues ranging from veteran affairs to public sector roles and paid tribute to a fellow congressman.

On March 14, 2025, Rep. Raskin expressed his concern over actions he perceives as disrespectful to veterans. He stated, "This is a terrible affront to the veterans posthumously dishonored and canceled and to their families. It is a pathological statement that the MAGA government cannot even accept inclusion in death."

Later that day, Raskin commented on the role of public sector workers in history and questioned Elon Musk's potential influence in this area. He tweeted at 18:43 UTC, "Public sector workers in democracies fought fascism and genocide. In totalitarian states, some went along with totalitarian crimes; some resisted. What kind of 'public sector worker' will Elon Musk be?"

In another tweet posted at 20:02 UTC on the same day, Raskin mourned the loss of Congressman Raúl Grijalva. He wrote, "From the halls of Congress to the communities of Southern Arizona, America mourns the painful loss of Congressman Raúl Grijalva, a passionate and undaunted servant of the people. Sending love and strength to his family. May his memory be a blessing to us all."
