In a tweet posted on April 16, Sherman expressed his outrage at the attempted murder of Governor Shapiro and his family. He attributed the motivation behind this act to "hateful anti-Zionist beliefs" and indicated that such ideologies have been provoking violent antisemitic attacks since October 7.
Later that day, on April 16, Sherman commented on the discontinuation of IRS Direct File, a service he advocated for alongside Senator Warren. He stated that shutting down the service represents a setback for tax fairness. Sherman further criticized former President Donald Trump, describing it as "the latest instance" of Trump favoring corporations to the detriment of hardworking Americans.
On April 18, Sherman turned his attention to Tesla, sharing concerns about the reliability of the company’s odometers. He highlighted issues for Tesla owners, who he stated lose warranty coverage and pay more for auto insurance due to "phony odometers." Sherman questioned public trust in Elon Musk, Tesla’s CEO, suggesting scrutiny over claims of improved efficiency and mileage costs despite such issues.
Brad Sherman, 68, originally hails from Los Angeles and currently resides in Sherman Oaks, California. His extensive tenure in Congress and educational background underscore his advocacies and policy critiques.
