Representative Adam Smith, currently serving Washington’s 9th congressional district, recently shared his views and activities via several posts on social media. Known for his long tenure in the U.S. Congress since 1997, Smith addressed various socio-political topics through his posts.
On April 14, 2025, Smith expressed concern about school children facing hunger due to funding cuts for school meal programs, attributed to former President Trump’s team. He highlighted this issue during a town hall meeting hosted by the local group, Feeding Feasible Feasts, with a focus on community engagement and solutions. “Children are not going to get an education because they’re going to school hungry,” Smith stated.
In another post on the same date, Smith criticized former President Trump for defying the Supreme Court over deportation policies, which he viewed as a challenge to democratic principles. “President Trump is defying the Supreme Court and openly fantasizing about deporting U.S. citizens,” Smith wrote, calling for the swift return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
Smith also acknowledged cultural festivities in a final post on April 14, 2025, wishing his followers well on Vaisakhi, thereby extending greetings to those celebrating the festival.
Smith has a history of public service both in the U.S. Congress, since 1997, and previously in the Washington State Senate from 1991 to 1997. Born in Washington, D.C. in 1965, Smith resides in Bellevue and holds degrees from Fordham University and the University of Washington.
