Rep. John Larson

Elon Musk called Social Security a Ponzi scheme and Donald Trump called it a scam. Make no mistake - they want to slash & privatize Americans' benefits. My resolution compels them to provide answers, but Republicans are trying to stop it from even coming to a vote in the House.

Elon Musk and ‘DOGE’ still haven’t appeared before Congress, and Republicans are doing everything they can to shield them from accountability. They changed the rules just to prevent us from investigating what ‘DOGE’ was doing with YOUR personal records. We need answers NOW.

President Trump promised to cut utility bills in half, but on his watch, electricity costs are up 13% nationwide. Republicans passed a bill to raise prices even further! Our American Affordability Act will help bring down energy costs for families and invest in clean power.

Republicans want to force through the "SAVE America Act," the worst voting restrictions since Jim Crow. It would make it harder for married women, servicemembers, Native Americans, and students to vote. I will always stand up to attacks on our democracy. Your vote is your voice!

4 years ago, we lost 2 Bristol police officers in the line of duty. I secured $3 million to construct the first-of-its-kind active shooter training facility in New England. This project will help keep our first responders safe & bolster emergency response. wtnh.com/news/connectic…

Republicans put a constitutional amendment on the floor that would force drastic cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Tonight, we defeated their scheme. I will never let them cut your EARNED BENEFITS. We need to expand Social Security by making the wealthy pay their fair share!

Everyone needs to watch this ⬇️ ‘DOGE’ has been stealing your records from Social Security for the last year. Thanks to brave whistleblowers like Charles Borges, the truth is starting to come out. Musk's minions need to come forward to Congress and testify UNDER OATH.

Yet another whistleblower has come forward and shared that DOGE employees illegally shared private information about Americans' Social Security—with one employee taking this data on a thumb drive to his next job. I'm committed to safeguarding your personal data, and I'm proud to stand by my colleagues on @WaysMeansCmte as they investigate these claims.

Reverend Brown is exactly right. Violence in our communities impacts everything from employment to food security. I was proud to secure new funding for @MUAVCT's work to end gun violence, support survivors and their families, and make a difference in the Greater Hartford area.

Our servicemembers' lives should not be put at risk, and the American people's tax dollars should not be spent on another forever war in the Middle East. Trump must end his illegal war in Iran now and work with Democrats to fund the programs families rely on to make ends meet.

For years, Republicans REFUSED TO FOLLOW THE LAW and install a plaque honoring law enforcement who protected the Capitol on January 6th. It's finally up. We'll never let Trump and his allies rewrite the history of that day - when we almost lost our democracy to the insurrection.

Trump's own Department of Justice admitted to wrongdoing by 'DOGE.' Now, we have another whistleblower saying YOUR PERSONAL DATA was copied on to a thumb drive and taken for personal gain and profit. We need answers and a full investigation NOW! npr.org/2026/03/11/nx-…

After a lifetime of work, people deserve to retire with dignity. I’m proud to receive a 100% from @ActiveRetirees for my work protecting Social Security and Medicare. I'll always fight for our nation's seniors and the benefits they've earned!

For years, East Hartford firefighters have been operating out of an outdated facility. That’s why I’m proud to secure $1 MILLION in new federal funding to replace the fire station and equip firefighters with additional training to combat intensifying house fires.

DOGE was a disaster from day one. Now, a new whistleblower report is alleging that a DOGE employee took the private information of 500M+ Americans onto a personal thumb drive. Unacceptable and needs a full investigation. washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/…

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Today we celebrate Irish heritage, community, and the traditions that bring neighbors together. Wishing everyone a safe and festive day. Slaintѐ!🍀

While President Trump and his cronies across the federal government try to stifle public dissent and opposition to Trump's illegal war, we must always stand up for free speech and a free press. Donald's feelings should never come before the Constitution. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/f…

The IRS leaked taxpayer data to ICE. ‘DOGE’ tried to hand over Social Security records to a group working to overturn elections. Trump's "CEO of the IRS" is doing nothing about it. @RepThompson and I won't stop demanding accountability and justice for these illegal data breaches!

🚨Secretary Kennedy and his anti-vaccine panel just lost BIG in court!🚨   They tried to put their conspiracies ahead of children's health - ending recommendations for lifesaving vaccines, like RSV, influenza, and Hepatitis A.   RFK Jr. must resign before our kids pay the price.

Good news! Revolution Wind is now online and on track to power 350,000 homes across New England. This project - thanks to the hard work of union construction workers - will save ratepayers millions and be a reliable energy source for years to come. ctpublic.org/news/2026-03-1…

Trump’s illegal tariffs cost Connecticut residents an estimated $691.9 MILLION. @RepHorsford and I have a bill to get small businesses and consumers the refunds they’re owed. The American people need relief now!
