We're warning job seekers to watch out for scammers posing as recruiters. A legitimate recruiter or employer will never require payment for a job opportunity, ask job seekers to send money, or ask for financial info before hiring. Take the time to thoroughly research the job, company, and recruiter.

Wishing all those who celebrate a joyful and peaceful Eid al-Adha.

We’ve launched an investigation into the popular online gaming platform Roblox. Roblox built an online pedophile playground. We’re going to uncover what the company knew about child exploitation on its platform, how they have profited, and what they have or haven’t done to protect our kids online.

Today, we remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives serving our country. We are forever grateful for their courage and service.

Eversource is seeking an 11 percent rate increase that will cost ratepayers hundreds of millions of dollars. We’re going to scrutinize every profit, every bonus, every perk and every padded expense in their application and we are going to be fighting for CT families and small businesses.

I stand with my friend Mayor Swarnjit Singh in condemning the vile and violent online threats made against him and his family. I thank the Norwich Police and FBI for their swift response.

We’re suing the Dept of Education over a new rule that could unlawfully limit access to federal student loans for those pursuing professional programs. The Trump/McMahon plan to drive down education costs by barring student loans defies Congress, the law, reality, and will do real damage.

FDA is opening the door tomorrow flavored e-cigarettes, despite evidence showing these products fuel youth addiction. Today, I joined Senator Blumenthal and advocates to demand that FDA reverse course. Public health should not take a backseat to profits.

During Mental Health Awareness Month, I want to make it very clear on behalf of the State of Connecticut: mental health parity is the law of the land. There are major health insurers in this state who are not compliant with the law. There needs to be accountability.

Thanks to Tom and Keith of DEEP for all their excellent work managing our state's hunter education program and supporting and safeguarding our natural resources. I also loved meeting Peter, one our state's leading wildlife biologists. And I even got a Tong Tasting - wild turkey sandwiches!

I'm leading a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general urging the FDA to reverse its draft guidance that would ease approvals for flavored e-cigarette products, which are known to worsen youth addiction. FDA needs to stand up to Big Tobacco and protect public health by abandoning this guidance.

Happy Mother’s Day. Honoring those who nurture and support the next generation every day. Here is my mother with UConn women’s basketball head coach Geno Auriemma last year!

Tong Tasting at one of my favorite restaurants. Stopped by McDonald's on Queen Street in Southington to celebrate the launch of their new refresher drinks and sodas! A portion of today's sales will support students at Southington High School. A great time for a great cause.

We sued to block Trump’s 1st round of lawless tariffs and won 6-3 in the U.S. Supreme Court. But Trump wouldn't take no for an answer and came back with another irrational money grab. We sued, and we just won again. We're going to keep fighting and winning to stop these lawless economic wars.

State lawmakers passed legislation that gives victims of Al generated sexual images the power to take civil action against abusers and platforms. It also gives our office the ability to purse civil injunctions and penalties to stop the creation and spread of these illegal images.

An international trade platform called Made in China has agreed to stop unlawful sales of bootleg GLP-1 weight loss drugs into the US following a CT investigation. There are no generic versions of these drugs on the market. Anyone offering this is exposing patients to potentially unsafe drugs.

I joined a multistate coalition in filing an amicus brief urging the US Supreme Court to block a lower court ruling that would ban telehealth prescriptions of Mifepristone. These restrictions place politics above patient safety and inject needless chaos into our healthcare system.

Marty cares about people. He cares about the people of New Haven, the people of his district, and those-the families and workers-who need his help most. We need Marty Looney, and I know we’ll look to him and lean on him for years to come. Marty, enjoy this well-earned time with Ellen and the family.

I stood alongside state and federal leaders as Governor Lamont signed into law Senate Bill 397. This law strengthens accountability for federal immigration enforcement and ensures people can seek justice when their rights are violated. No one is above the law, including federal officials.

Here's what you need to know if you're impacted by the Spirit Airlines shutdown. You can find more information about the bankruptcy case here: www.nysb.uscourts.gov

CT is taking a big step with the passage of two bills aimed at combatting youth social media addiction and Al harms. Every parent knows the constant risks and dangers of social media. We’re done waiting for tech bros and Washington to do right by our families.

As of today, Purdue and the Sackler Family are permanently exiled from the addiction industry. Billions of dollars of their blood money will now begin to flow towards treatment, prevention, and support for the victims and survivors of the opioid epidemic infamously inflamed by their callous greed.

We’re urging PURA to reject hundreds of millions in interest Eversource is trying to charge ratepayers for storm costs that haven’t even been fully vetted. Eversource avoided PURA scrutiny for years and now they’re demanding payment because they think they have the votes at PURA.

Attorneys general united in the 1990s to take on Big Tobacco and drive down youth smoking rates. Now, a bipartisan coalition is uniting to fight illegal vaping products. We’re urging major credit card companies and payment processors to join us in stopping illegal sales.

Rihan, a Cheshire H.S student was detained by ICE 2 weeks ago, despite being in the US with his family under humanitarian parole. We came together, spoke out, and fought for him. Now, he’s back home with his family. This is proof that we have power and we need to use that power to keep people safe.

Today, we sued the EPA for failing to implement a life saving clean air standard to reduce deadly soot pollution. This denies Connecticut and other states the tools we need to reduce air pollution and prevent thousands of premature deaths, asthma attacks, and hospitalizations every year.

HB 5312 gives victims the power to sue and gives The Office of The Attorney General the authority to hold bad actors and platforms accountable for spreading Al generated nonconsensual sexualized images. No one should have their image stolen, manipulated, or weaponized against them.

Remembering a dedicated public servant and friend.

Our kids—especially tween and teen girls—are inundated with influencer content pushing product after product loaded with messages about appearance, hygiene and selfcare. Not every product promoted online is safe or appropriate, and far too often, that information is not clear.

A federal jury confirmed what we've known all along- Live Nation and Ticketmaster illegally shut out competition, leaving ticket buyers with outrageous prices and fewer choices. This is a major victory for consumers in the State of Connecticut and across the county.

Today's verdict confirms what fans, artists, venues, and states have been saying for years — Live Nation & Ticketmaster built and maintained a system that shuts out competition and drives up prices. We’ll continue to ensure accountability, meaningful reform, and a system that puts consumers first.

Statement in response to the Department of Justice's lawsuit targeting Connecticut's Trust Act.

We’re demanding the immediate release of Rihan, a Cheshire High School student detained by ICE. Rihan and his family entered the US legally on humanitarian parole. His father helped US troops by working as an interpreter in Afghanistan. They were doing everything by the book to build a life here.

I stood alongside Senator Blumenthal today to urge the fda to take comprehensive action to protect people from unsafe compound weight loss drugs. There are no generic GLP-1 injections. Anyone advertising one is not telling the truth and are putting people at risk.

Scam alert! We're seeing text messages falsely claiming to be from the Connecticut Superior Court about a citation notice. This is a scam. Do not click on any links, respond, or provide any personal or payment information. The Superior Court will never demand payment by text.

This is a bombshell that blows open the entire Aquarion decision. PURA completely missed half a billion dollars in rate increases. Their entire decision rested on bad math based on incomplete information. There's no question that PURA must immediately reconsider its decision and reject the sale.

Thank you to the UConn men’s and women’s basketball team for a fantastic season! Both teams made it to the final four and the men made it to the national championship game. Incredible season for both.

Scammers are using sophisticated tools like deepfakes and targeted ads to exploit trust and steal people’s life savings. If an investment opportunity is coming to you through social media, stop and take a closer look. Stay vigilant, do your research, and report suspected scams immediately.

Easter Tong Tasting. Liz's first carrot cake in the shape of an Easter bunny. Delicious, though I thought it needed some whiskers.  Quiche, ham, deviled eggs, all the greatest hits.

Happy Easter to all who celebrate. Wishing you a day spent with loved ones.

UConn is heading to the championship! Congratulations, Huskies!

The Constitution plainly forbids the President from commandeering elections to manipulate and micromanage how we vote. This executive order is an illegal attempt to disenfranchise millions of voters and fundamentally alter how Americans vote. We are suing to protect our democracy.

We stopped an unlawful federal policy that would have cut critical funding for state energy programs and driven up costs. This unlawful, short-sighted policy was concocted to keep us reliant on fossil fuels. We sued, we won, and we're going to keep fighting to protect funding and families.

Illicit xylazine is costing lives in Connecticut and across the US. It's being mixed with opioids, driving deadly overdoses, and making this crisis even harder to fight. Congress must act now to make xylazine a controlled substance and give law enforcement the tools to save lives.

Wishing all who celebrate a joyful and peaceful holiday.

The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments today on President Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship. We were proud to lead the fight against this unlawful order, and grateful for the injunctions we obtained that prevented this from ever taking effect. We are optimistic the Court will agree.

Skyrocketing gas prices right now are the direct result of Donald Trump’s incompetently-managed war of choice in Iran. The DEEP has notified me of an abnormal market disruption, which triggers additional consumer protections. Overcharging consumers during this abnormal market disruption is illegal.

The Trump administration rolled back updated federal limits on mercury and other toxic air pollutants from coal and oil power plants, reverting to outdated standards. That means more dangerous emissions in our air and water. We're suing today to protect Connecticut families from lifelong harm.

The UConn men’s AND women’s teams are heading to the Final Four! I may have hurt my foot jumping up and down.

Hartford ➡️ Stamford ➡️ Greenwich ➡️New Haven. Connecticut is not afraid and Connecticut is not backing down. #NoKings
