John Larson

This is about public housing versus private equity. We’re in this fight on behalf of the working people of this district. Trump can put me on every hit list he wants. We’ll never stop fighting.

The billionaire class is spending millions against me. They want this seat controlled by corporate CEOs and dark money. But voters believe in what I've always fought for: progressive values, workers’ rights, Medicare for All, and taking on Trump & the billionaires backing him.

Former Hartford Mayor Luke Bronin secured the Democratic endorsement for Connecticut’s 1st District in a historic upset to incumbent Rep. John Larson, a working-class progressive with a storied record of taking on corporate power. buff.ly/LuLtL61

It meant everything to have @jamie_raskin, who led Trump’s second impeachment in the House, stand with me in Hartford — and to build on his work when I filed articles of impeachment last month against the President. Grateful for Jamie’s leadership and honored by his support.

I’m grateful for the support of the transit workers who keep our district moving. I always have, and always will, stand shoulder to shoulder with workers to demand the wages, benefits, protections, and dignity they’ve earned.

Whether it's Donald Trump or union-busting employers leaving workers behind, Democrats are fired up and ready to take on their costly agenda. Proud to be in this fight with progressive leaders like William Tong and families across the First District and the state of Connecticut.

What a great day yesterday to be at the annual Shad Derby Festival & Parade in Windsor! Enjoyed taking part in this treasured community tradition with so many friends and neighbors.

“John Larson is a fighter. He is never more fierce than when he is fighting for the working class against the billionaire class.”

Medical debt SHOULD NOT exist in the world's richest country. The ACA was a major step forward. Now Trump's cuts put millions at risk of losing coverage or being gouged by the private market. Proud to keep working with @LaurenUnderwood to keep Trump's hands OFF the ACA.

“While Bronin and Trump go after Congressman Larson, he continues to stand up for East Hartford." And I’ll never stop fighting for this district — my lifelong home.

Proud to have earned ELEVEN new endorsements yesterday from these powerhouse unions. Labor is united behind us because workers know I will always make sure they have a seat - and power - at the table.

Proud to have progressive champion @MattLesser standing with me, and he’s right — our district’s needs are my first, and only, priority.

"Larson roared back and the Trump administration backed down." Your benefits are a promise, not an option.

This endorsement from @CTWFP means so much because it comes from people who organize, fight & deliver every day. I grew up in a working-class family, and I’ll never back down from Trump, Republicans, or anyone who stands in the way of making life more affordable for our district.

As a nurse and a veteran, Berline has spent her career showing up and looking after people. Proud to have her standing with us!

“Cynical.” “Misleading.” “Petty.” The billionaire dark money machine behind Luke Bronin wants to take me down for the same reason Trump wants to take me down. I stand in the way of corporate interests, and stand up for working people.

"Our organization and the congressman’s campaign has every confidence that he is going to win the primary and win handily." - Sarah Ganong, State Director of @CTWFP ctmirror.org/2026/05/01/lar…

The 40-hour work week and weekends off were union wins. Today we should take special note of the importance of protecting workers’ right to organize for fair conditions, fair wages, and an affordable life in the face of corporate power. Happy May Day! (& let's pass the PRO act!)

“John Larson has never been afraid to speak truth, to push back against corruption, or to fight for the people he represents. At a time when so much is at stake, we need that kind of steady, principled leadership more than ever.” courant.com/2026/04/29/opi…
