Brad Sherman, a longstanding member of the U.S. Congress representing California's 32nd district, has recently shared his views on various issues through social media posts. Sherman's comments address international political situations, domestic health policies, and consumer protection concerns.

On February 11, 2025, Congressman Sherman commented on the political climate in Iran. He stated: "Despite enormous risks to their lives, everyday Iranians have time and time again made it clear - the people of #Iran stand resolutely against the Ayatollah's regime." This tweet highlights his perspective on the Iranian people's opposition to their government.

Later that day, Sherman expressed concern regarding changes in funding for global health initiatives. In a tweet posted at 17:53 UTC, he remarked: "I signed a letter to the Trump Administration expressing my deep concern over the funding pause on the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief #PEPFAR. These programs save thousands of lives abroad and protect Americans at home from the spread of HIV/AIDS." The statement underscores his commitment to international health efforts and their importance in controlling HIV/AIDS globally.

In another post made on February 11 at 19:57 UTC, Sherman hinted at financial consumer protection issues by stating: "If only there was some financial bureau that was specifically created to protect consumers from such scams... #CFPB" His comment alludes to potential shortcomings or needs within existing consumer protection frameworks.
