Trump’s chaotic trade war continues to impact our local economy, even after the Supreme Court ruled Trump had no authority to unilaterally implement these tariffs on a whim. I visited Lipper International, a local Wallingford business, to discuss the impact of these tariffs.

I joined Mayor Sendroff and first responders to announce over $1 million in Community Project Funding that I secured to build an Emergency Operations Center in Hamden. This project will enhance disaster preparedness, response capabilities, and recovery efforts.

Love is love.

Entire communities have been forever changed by gun violence. Tens of thousands of lives are lost to gun violence every year. We must all work together to pass common-sense gun legislation like Ethan's Law to end the gun violence epidemic.

$14 Million of YOUR MONEY, thank Republicans for this administration's chaos.

President Trump tore up the Iran Nuclear Deal and its tough nuclear inspections. His “deal”? $300B and total sanctions relief. He launched this war with no plan and is now racing to end it on any terms - leaving Iran with more control than under the deal he destroyed.

Cooling centers will be available starting today because of extreme heat in Connecticut. Take care of yourself. If you need to stay out of the heat, find a nearby cooling center at 211ct.org or by calling 2-1-1.

I voted no on FISA extension today. I believe that national security and the privacy of American citizens must both be protected, and I will continue to demand accountability from the Trump Administration before considering trusting them with further surveillance powers.

Cheering you all on from home, nice and safe from the rain! Don't fuck it up☺️

He loves the inflation

House Republicans handed ICE a blank check last year. Now they are back with a DHS funding bill that fails to add basic accountability measures, fails to strengthen oversight, and fails to protect taxpayer dollars. Americans deserve better.

We are witnessing corruption like we have never seen before under President Trump. I’m laying out the facts on this administration's blatant corruption. See the full list here: delauro.house.gov/CorruptDon youtube.com/shorts/oQqH8...

Yesterday I listed just a few of President Trump's corrupt dealings. Today, we have yet another example of how he's using the presidency to enrich himself while you live paycheck to paycheck. Learn more: delauro.house.gov/corruptdon

President Trump ran on restoring American manufacturing and reducing our trade deficit, but his chaotic, tariff policy has only created uncertainty for American families. Thank you, Rep. Mark Pocan, for joining me in hearing our community's concerns about these reckless tariffs.

Republicans have twisted priorities. They took away healthcare from millions of Americans while building an arena & Ballroom at the White House to entertain President Trump. @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting to bring down the cost of living.

How much does your gas cost? How much do your eggs cost? How much was your last gallon of milk? Americans are feeling the consequences of Trump’s reckless policies. @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting to help hardworking Americans while Republicans cater to billionaires.

Republicans refuse to invest in the research that saves lives. In fact, they’re working overtime to make us weaker, sicker, and poorer. I’m proudly fighting back against their latest attempt to gut Health and Human Services. 🔴WATCH NOW @democrats-appropriations.house.gov: youtu.be/MWEhc-M22go

It is our job in America, as the leader of the free world, to continue to support our ally as they fight for democracy. I will continue to stand with Ukraine, for as long as it takes, until all of its people are safe and free once more. youtube.com/shorts/_0Epp...

Screwworm has been detected in Texas cattle, meaning beef prices could rise even higher. Seems like a good time to recall that the Trump Administration & Elon Musk caused chaos & pushed out thousands of workers at the Animal & Plant Health Inspection Service.

Instead of addressing the affordability crisis, Republicans cut $2 billion from the Affordable Care Act and $8 billion from the Department of Education, jeopardizing the health and future of our country. I am fighting to end these attacks on Americans.

President Trump is still trying to establish a $1.8 billion slush fund to pay January 6 rioters. This is a disgrace and Democrats are fighting back. youtube.com/shorts/ekfBF...

I voted yesterday to end Trump’s costly war of choice in Iran. Today, I voted to prevent the Trump administration from dragging the US into Israel's war in Lebanon. We must engage in serious diplomacy with real ceasefires to prevent further escalation across the region.

Trump’s new SNAP requirements have driven thousands of CT residents off this lifeline, including veterans, parents with older children, & older adults – all while he deepens the cost-of-living crisis. Thank you to @GovNedLamont for ensuring CT residents are taken care of.

Appointing Bill Pulte, a Trump loyalist with no national security experience, to be Director of National Intelligence is an insult to those who work every day to keep Americans safe and will put our communities in danger. This reckless pick must not be confirmed.

June is Gun Violence Awareness Month. Congress should be united in finding ways to save lives & end gun violence. This is why I introduced Ethan's Law, championed by Kristin Song, requiring safe storage of firearms to protect our families from senseless tragedies. bit.ly/4dZFzye

The Trump Administration values loyalty over qualifications. These hirings weaken our security and put the lives of Americans in the hands of incompetent, untested loyalists.

Americans deserve clean air & water. But today, we're on the verge of LOSING that right, along with America's natural wonders, to yet another round of Republican cuts that cater to big polluters. Watch me fight back alongside @democrats-appropriations.house.gov: youtu.be/MaWjr70DGJE

Donald Trump’s America means higher gas prices, higher grocery prices and higher healthcare premiums.

Donald Trump and his allies are trading stocks and making fortunes off Republicans’ billionaire-first policies. And who’s paying the price? The American people.

So, Trump’s tariffs do raise costs? :)

Trump’s former personal lawyer who now leads the Justice Department granted Trump, his family, & his businesses, retroactive immunity from any & all prosecution related to ongoing tax investigations. @democrats-appropriations.house.gov will demand answers. Watch here: youtu.be/rt_bIvnvq3o

I'm glad Dulce is free, but she never should have been detained in the first place. ICE needs an overhaul immediately— and I will not vote for another dime of funding for the agency until we see serious reforms.

Apparently, millions of Americans losing health coverage wasn't enough for Trump & Republicans in Congress. Now they're taking away benefits from even more Americans who are already struggling with high prices. This is wrong & this rule must not be finalized- lives are at stake.

Families are struggling with the rising cost of gas, groceries, & everyday necessities. Instead of addressing this crisis, Trump started a war with Iran that has made everything more expensive. Sec Rubio is testifying before @democrats-appropriations.house.gov Watch here: youtu.be/CZaqbwuH5cc

As the war in Iran deepens the affordability crisis, Trump is doubling down on making life unaffordable by canceling more offshore wind projects. CT families need more sources of energy to bring down costs. Thank you to Attorney General Tong for continuing to fight back.

As hardworking families struggle to afford groceries and gas, Trump is fixated on his $1 billion ballroom. Americans deal with high prices while the President is busy with vanity projects.

Israel's attacks against Lebanon are disrupting talks to end the war with Iran and leading to further escalation across the region. Trump's "ceasefire" is falling apart while Americans keep paying more and more at the pump. www.cnbc.com/2026/06/01/i...

Be who you areeee

Trump’s scheme to pay $1.8 billion of YOUR MONEY to violent criminals who assaulted police officers has failed thanks to a bipartisan, nationwide outcry.   This was just the latest corrupt effort to steal taxpayer dollars for his allies. Congress must not let him get away with it.

Happy Pride Month! This month, let us celebrate the strength, love, and joy of the LGBTQ+ community. The LGBTQ+ community is under attack, but I will always have your back. 🏳️‍🌈

Happy June

The Republican CTC vs the Democrat CTC: Democrats want to get more money to working- and middle-class Americans. Republicans are catering to billionaires and giant corporations.

It's an absolute pleasure to share that Funmi & Monica were awarded the DeLauro & Cole scholarships at GLOBAL’s #AcceptAbilityGala. I'll continue advocating in support of #downsyndromeresearch & I am proud to have started funding for the NIH's INCLUDE Project with Tom Cole.

This February, I witnessed firsthand how Israeli settlers in the West Bank pursue violent attacks on innocent Palestinians every day. The Israeli government has allowed these attackers to roam free, with almost no accountability. We cannot afford to be a bystander any longer.

Happy Hamburger Day!🍔 Few foods are more iconic than the hamburger, and it all traces back to New Haven! Louis’ Lunch is widely credited with serving the first hamburger sandwich in 1895. A delicious piece of American history. If you don't know, now you do!

Thank you Comptroller Scanlon for joining me to highlight the impact the war in Iran is having on hardworking families as fuel costs rise. Families are facing a cost of living crisis and the war in Iran is making it worse.

Eid Mubarak to all who celebrate! May this year's holiday serve as a time for loved ones to connect and happy memories to be made.

Reminder: Trump will use your money for golden ballrooms, giant arches, and UFC matches before spending a single cent to help Americans struggling with the cost of living. He works for himself and the super wealthy, not for you.
