Adam Schiff, who has represented California’s 30th district in the U.S. Congress since 2001, offered commentary on various issues and events via social media on March 31, 2025. Through a series of tweets, Schiff addressed the observance of Eid, the detention of a Russian critic, and a forthcoming legislative proposal honoring a notable civil rights activist.

On the topic of Eid, Schiff shared a message of celebration: "To all those celebrating, Eid Mubarak! As families and communities gather in prayer and gratitude, may this sacred day be a beacon of hope, renewal, and unity for Muslims across the nation and around the world." This message was posted at 14:58 UTC on March 31, 2025.

Addressing a concern involving Kseniia Petrova, a Russian critic and university medical researcher detained upon her return to the United States by Customs and Border Protection, Schiff tweeted: "Kseniia Petrova is a university medical researcher and Putin critic. Upon returning to the US, CBP detained her. I'm urging @Sec_Noem and @ICEgov to release Kseniia while her asylum claim is pending and ensure she is not deported to Russia – where she risks persecution." This tweet was issued at 17:28 UTC on March 31, 2025.

Later in the day, Schiff highlighted the significance of César Chávez's work as a civil rights activist. He declared: "Civil rights activist César Chávez dedicated his life to fighting for farm workers and improving the lives of countless others. Today @SenAlexPadilla, @RepRaulRuizMD, and I commemorate his legacy with a new bill to establish a National Park and monument in his honor." This statement was posted at 18:45 UTC on March 31, 2025.
