Connecticut Dems

Fighting for our values by electing Democrats at the federal, state, and local levels. Paid for by the Connecticut DSCC. Vanita Bhalla, Treasurer.

More than 50,000 Connecticut residents lost SNAP benefits since the passage of H.R.1, and it is unclear what the USDA is doing to ensure these families don’t fall deeper into hunger.

Grateful for the actions taken by Gov. Lamont to keep CT families fed.

[Rosa DeLauro @Rosa_DeLauro]

And he wants to give these criminals $1.8 billion of YOUR tax dollars. This slush fund for criminals must be stopped.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

There were multiple votes tonight to make the $1.8 billion cop beater fund illegal and Republicans blocked every single one, paving the way for Trump to resuscitate his slush fund.

[College Democrats of Connecticut @CollegeDemsCT]

This is the type of candidate that UConn College Republicans support.

The College Democrats of Connecticut (CDCT) call on UConn Republicans to immediately withdraw their endorsement and condemn this disgraceful and hateful behavior.

[Governor Ned Lamont @GovNedLamont]

This is a good idea, @SenatorDuff. And we should invest any revenue into the new fund we created supporting the families of fallen police officers killed in the line of duty. Let's discuss. https://t.co/zETI4WtnJB

[Ned Lamont @NedLamont]

No excuse? No problem. I just signed a bill to ensure every single Connecticut voter has the option to vote by absentee ballot! 🗳️

We are making voting more accessible, strengthening election integrity, and keeping federal agents 250 feet away from polling places.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Trump's corruption has reached an entirely new level. The $1.7 billion slush fund is just outright theft. And no Republican owes such bind allegiance to the president to defend this.

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

Trump rambled for nearly an hour about tariffs on Taiwanese semiconductors and running for a third term, but couldn’t bother to stay and actually shake the hand of each graduating USCGA Cadet.

[Alfonso Robinson @ctblogger]

Memories... #CTPolitics

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

Donald Trump disrespected the achievement of every graduating USCGA cadet in New London today with the same kind of incoherent rant we’ve seen at MAGA campaign rallies.

Will @RyanFazio speak up for the cadets or pretend Trump acted Presidential?

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

@ryanfazio is in the stands trying to get this guy's endorsement, by the way.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Trump: I said when is the first one coming? They said in 28. I said I'm going to be here in 28. Maybe I'll be here in 32. Maybe, I will.

[Ned Lamont @NedLamont]

Ned Lamont is the Democratic nominee for Governor! Here he is accepting the nomination. #TeamLamont

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

It's hard to keep track of Trump's corruption schemes, but here's the most dangerous one.

Trump is suing the federal government (himself!) for billions in payments (to himself!) and when the courts say no, he tells the parties (both him!) to settle.

Confusing? Let me explain.

[Reverend Al Sharpton @TheRevAl]

On #PoliticsNation last night, I spoke with Ned Lamont about Connecticut’s new legislation aimed at protecting residents from civil rights violations tied to immigration enforcement.

Governor Lamont discussed the urgency behind the bill following the detention of a Connecticut high school student by ICE agents, and outlined new protections involving schools, houses of worship, courthouses, and the right for citizens to pursue legal action when their rights are violated.

We also discussed the climate of fear surrounding immigration enforcement, voting rights, and economic insecurity facing working families across the country. As the governor said, people cannot allow fear to stop them from participating in democracy or standing up for their rights.

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

Trump’s War costs YOU more, and he doesn’t care.

"Not even a little bit."

[Acyn @Acyn]

Trump on Iran War:

Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal?

Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

That sound you hear is yet another shoe dropping...

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

Trump makes everything worse.

Remember when diesel went up 9¢? CT Republicans lost their minds about how much it would cost you, the person who never buys diesel. They're quiet about Trump's War, and doubling down on volatile, costly fossil fuels forever

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

We'll say it: they both make great points.

[Ned Lamont @NedLamont]

When I took office, Connecticut needed a comeback. So we rolled up our sleeves and got it done. Increased wages, paid family leave, and an improved state economy with so much more to build on! #TeamLamont #NedforCt

The face TMZ sees when they learn about appropriations.
