The Office of Congressman Abe Hamadeh shared a series of tweets on March 25, 2025, addressing various topics including voting processes and veteran affairs. The statements reflect the congressman's positions and activities within his legislative duties.

On March 25, 2025, Congressman Hamadeh tweeted about recent developments in ranked-choice voting legislation. He noted that "Thirteen states have banned ranked-choice voting with West Virginia and Wyoming being the latest." He expressed his opinion that this voting method is flawed and should be prohibited at the federal level.

In another tweet from the same day, Congressman Hamadeh discussed his participation in a House Veterans' Affairs Subcommittee hearing. He shared his opening remarks for the session titled “Mission Incomplete: Strengthening the TAP Program to Ensure a Smoother Transition to Civilian Life for Tomorrow's Veterans.” The congressman highlighted his military background by stating, "I served as an Army Reserve".

Later on March 25, 2025, Congressman Hamadeh addressed questions to Ms. Margarita Devlin during an oversight hearing. He challenged her on veteran employment outcomes by asking how the Department of Labor can claim commitment while avoiding responsibility for ensuring service members' successful transitions. His query was captured in a tweet stating "How can the Department of Labor claim to prioritize veteran employment outcomes while washing your hands of responsibility for ensuring service".
