Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez, representing Illinois' 3rd district, recently shared her views on social media regarding several pressing issues. Her posts reflect her stance on transgender rights, federal spending priorities, and foreign policy.
On March 5, 2025, Congresswoman Ramirez expressed concern about the potential implications of banning transgender individuals from the military. She questioned future restrictions and affirmed her support for the transgender community by stating: "After trans people are banned from the military, where will they be banned from next? I stand with my trans siblings today and everyday."
In another post made shortly after, she criticized federal budget allocations that favor defense contractors over public welfare programs. She stated: "It’s sick to cut trillions in federal benefits, but give millions more in handouts to defense contractors. We don't get health care for all but we get a golden dome?" This reflects her dissatisfaction with current fiscal policies.
Later that day, Ramirez commented on what she perceives as an aggressive tone in political discourse related to international relations. She remarked: "So, clearly, we've entered the imperialist, warmongering part of the speech." This suggests her critical view of militaristic rhetoric.
