Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, representing Illinois' 8th district since 2017, has recently shared a series of tweets addressing various topics. Born in New Delhi and residing in Schaumburg, Krishnamoorthi is an alumnus of Princeton University and Harvard University. His tweets reflect his engagement with community activities, national observances, and pressing concerns about federal operations.

On February 14, 2025, Congressman Krishnamoorthi highlighted a community initiative by stating: "Today, my staff dropped off Valentine’s Day cards from local students from across our district at the Edward Hines Jr. VA hospital and VFW posts to show our gratitude to the brave servicemembers who have defended our communities and our country."

On February 17, 2025, he reflected on President's Day with a message urging remembrance of past leaders: "Today, on President's Day, let us remember and honor the legacy of those who held our nation's highest office, bearing its burdens, elevating and falling short of our ideals, but all the while upholding the principles of our Constitution."

Later that day, Congressman Krishnamoorthi expressed concern over staffing issues affecting air travel safety: "Chicago’s O’Hare is one of America’s busiest airports. These mass FAA firings are incredibly concerning, especially considering the ongoing staffing challenges. Jeopardizing travelers’ safety to give special interests a tax cut is unthinkable."
