Families are facing a cost-of-living crisis. What did House Republicans have to say about it this week? They voted to CUT IN HALF programs that help households save hundreds on their utility bills. Really?! thehill.com/policy/energy-…

The Trump Administration wants to ban abortion at the VA, even in cases of rape or incest. Our veterans served with honor, and now, Donald Trump is thanking them by stripping away their bodily autonomy? We're fighting this attack on women's reproductive rights tooth and nail!

Trump fiddles while families get squeezed. Numbers don't lie. Unemployment is on the rise. His tariffs are raising costs everywhere you shop. His budget means higher health care premiums and utility bills. When will House Republicans stop hiding behind Trump's lies and act?

Thanks to the GOP Budget, 300 Connecticut workers got pink slips, and households will pay over $300 more annually for electricity. Today, House Republicans voted to slash efficiency programs in half, hiking energy bills even further! Families can't afford this radical agenda.

The Trump Administration wants to let employers pay home health care workers less than minimum wage and deny them overtime pay. The need for long term care is only growing. Our care workers deserve fair pay, not their government conspiring with employers to screw them over.

RFK Jr. doubled down on every one of his lies today. He gave no good reason for his CDC purge. He had no evidence to justify his vaccine restrictions. He couldn't defend shutting down cancer research. Secretary Kennedy: Resign before your baseless conspiracies kill our kids.

ICE has gone well beyond their mission, even deporting active duty servicemembers and veterans! That’s not the America I know. This has to stop now. I’m demanding answers and real accountability for our military families. military.com/daily-news/202…

Trump promised to lower costs on Day One, but he's raising them on you. While the Republican Budget showers the rich with new tax breaks, you'll have to pay more to see your doctor if you're covered through HUSKY. @RepChrisPappas and I have a bill to stop their 'sick tax' NOW.

Last week, in Minnesota, violence struck again. Innocent children were gunned down during morning mass. Enough is enough. Our kids are paying the price. We can ban assault weapons and pass universal background checks NOW. @SpeakerJohnson, call a vote! Is that too much to ask?

We heard from brave Epstein survivors this morning. Their stories are harrowing. Their stories are real. They aren't a hoax, Mr. President. Release the files!

The FTC protects consumers from price gouging and fraud. They acted to reduce inhaler prices and crack down on junk fees. Donald Trump tried to stop their work to lower your costs. We filed a brief in court against his takeover. I'm glad to see Commissioner Slaughter reinstated.

Trump’s White House is working the phones to block a vote on the Epstein Files. What are they hiding? Survivors of Epstein’s abuse network deserve justice - no matter how powerful the perpetrators may be. Proud to join with @RepRoKhanna and @RepThomasMassie to demand a VOTE.

More than 70 million Americans rely on Social Security to make ends meet. But Trump and his 'DOGE' want to slash & privatize your EARNED BENEFITS. The GOP Budget threatens the program's future. Enough. Democrats are ready to act to not just protect but enhance Social Security!

The Trump USDA wants to move services for local farms out of New England... and all the way to North Carolina. They could shut down 3 offices that work directly with Connecticut farmers. @RepJahanaHayes, @rosadelauro, @RepJoeCourtney and I are speaking out to stop this plan!

It was great to catch up with South End residents before heading back to Washington. The Republican Budget makes massive cuts to Medicare & SNAP benefits - and threatens the future of Social Security. I'm fighting to reverse these cuts and take real action to lower your costs.

Masked ICE operatives separating families in Newington. Marines ordered to patrol LA streets. That's not the America I know. I'm glad to see a judge rein in Trump's moves. Congress is back in D.C. Will House Republicans continue to enable his descent toward authoritarianism?

Whether you're a civil servant or a minimum wage worker, Trump has been going after your job protections. This Labor Day, we stand with working Americans. When we return to Washington, it's time to act to protect the right to bargain for better pay and benefits for ALL workers.

Trump’s attacks on the VA are harming our veterans & workers. ❌ Essential services cut ❌ Life-saving research halted ❌ Parental leave revoked @AFGENational Local 2138 President Sandra Salmon is standing strong with her members and the veterans they serve. We have your back!

On International Overdose Awareness Day, we remember those we've lost to addiction and stand with their loved ones, and everyone in recovery. We'll continue to work together to expand access to treatment and ensure everyone struggling with addiction has the support they need.
