Rep. Adam Smith, who has served in the U.S. Congress representing Washington’s 9th District since 1997, shared his thoughts on several topics through a series of tweets on March 11, 2025. His social media activity provides insight into his engagements and opinions on national and international matters.

On March 11, Rep. Smith tweeted about his meeting with Washington State Treasurer Mike Pellicciotti in Washington D.C., discussing financial support for the state and the future of tax-exempt municipal bonds. He expressed gratitude for the visit: “I met with @WaTreasurer Mike Pellicciotti in D.C. today to hear how we can better support the state’s finances and what our path forward with tax exempt municipal bonds will be. Thanks for coming by.”

Later that day, Rep. Smith emphasized accountability at the presidential level, stating: “It all comes back to @POTUS. The President needs to be held accountable for his actions.” This tweet underscores his stance on holding leadership responsible.

In another tweet posted shortly after, Rep. Smith commented on international relations concerning Ukraine. He acknowledged positive developments regarding a ceasefire agreement but criticized past decisions affecting aid to Ukraine: “Good news on the US Ukraine agreement for a 30 day ceasefire. Better news if Trump’s team follows through on what they said about restarting aid to Ukraine. Still incredibly stupid to have shut that aid off. Putin is driving this war. Put pressure on him. Don’t cripple Ukraine.”
