Nanette D. Barragán, a U.S. Congresswoman representing California's 44th district, has recently shared her perspectives on several pressing issues through social media posts. Her comments addressed topics such as food assistance programs, Social Security, and a tribute to a fellow congressman.

On March 25, 2025, Barragán expressed concern about potential cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), stating that "Trump, Musk, & Republicans want to take food off the tables of American families." She highlighted her role as Co-Chair of the House Democrats Steering and Policy Committee during a hearing on the matter.

Later that day, Barragán criticized actions she attributes to Donald Trump and Elon Musk regarding Social Security. In her post at 21:45 UTC, she claimed that "Donald Trump and Elon Musk are breaking Social Security – making it nearly impossible for seniors to get help with their benefits." She emphasized her commitment to preserving Social Security and called for support from House Republicans.

In another tweet on March 25, Barragán paid tribute to Congressman Raúl Grijalva. At 23:13 UTC, she honored him as "a tireless advocate for the environment, Indigenous communities, and for our working class families — a true champion of the people." This acknowledgment was made on the House floor in recognition of his contributions.
