Jan Schakowsky, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Illinois' 9th district, has been vocal on various issues through her social media platform. She has addressed topics ranging from political appointments to education policy and international incidents.

On March 19, 2025, Schakowsky released a joint statement with Representative Jerry Nadler concerning former President Donald Trump's actions. She stated: "My joint statement with @RepJerryNadler on Trump’s attempt to illegally fire the two Democratic FTC Commissioners."

The following day, March 20, 2025, Schakowsky commented on efforts related to the Department of Education. She tweeted: "Trump and his billionaire cronies do NOT have the power to abolish the Department of Education. They want to harm our students, take jobs away from teachers, all to profit off of private education. Justice will prevail."

On March 21, 2025, Schakowsky turned her attention to international affairs with a focus on Guatemala. She remarked: "The recent attacks in Río Tebernal, Guatemala, are a horrific assault on the indigenous community and must be unequivocally condemned. I urge the @StateDept to investigate these violent acts thoroughly, including if the perpetrators were U.S.-trained or using U.S. weapons."
