Rep. Adam Smith, who has served in the U.S. Congress representing Washington’s 9th District since 1997, shared a series of tweets on March 26, 2025. The tweets cover historical reflections and his engagements with community organizations and initiatives.

In his first tweet, Rep. Smith reflects on the tragic event that occurred at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory in 1911. He states, “On this day in 1911, a fire erupted at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory due to a dangerously unsafe work environment. Through the support of unions, many working-class Americans can have the support at their job that they need to protect themselves both physically and financially.” This post highlights the importance of union support for workers’ safety and financial security.

Later that day, he tweeted about a meeting with Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated regarding their public service efforts. He wrote, “I met with @dstinc1913 to talk about their public service initiatives for our community. Thanks for stopping by for this conversation.” The tweet acknowledges his appreciation for engaging with community-focused organizations.

In another post from March 26th, Rep. Smith mentioned a final Procurement Workshop conducted by his office alongside the Port of Seattle. He expressed gratitude towards participants by tweeting: “My office had our final Procurement Workshop with @portofseattle this morning. Thanks to everyone who joined this morning and throughout this month to learn how to support small businesses.” This initiative was aimed at educating attendees on supporting small businesses.
