Trump’s pet projects are a recipe for disastrous waste. The billions being thrown at the President’s ego-driven boondoggles could be spent on bringing down costs for housing, health care, education, & more.

Trump is shortchanging VA police officers with pay downgrades & staff cuts. I’m introducing legislation to protect them—along with other VA staff, veterans & their families.

Sen. BLUMENTHAL: You had Zuckerberg on the stand. Attorney: Yes. Blumenthal: He denied Instagram’s addictive? Attorney: Yes. Blumenthal: You showed internal documents that he’s lying? Attorney: The amount of dancing done you would’ve thought Zuckerberg’s a ballroom dancer.

A massive boon to Big Tech—Trump rolling back a rule that stops it from targeting & scamming. I led the Senate floor effort to reinstate this consumer safeguard—voted down by Republicans.

With skyrocketing energy prices, American consumers need relief. Families deserve money back in their pockets—yet the Trump Administration’s top energy official sympathizes with the oil & gas industries.

A product that does devastating harm. Executives that know it, deny it, & do nothing—preferring to profit. That was Big Tobacco’s business model. Now it’s Big Tech’s. I helped lead AG’s suing Big Tobacco. Now I’m fighting Big Tech with the Kids Online Safety Act.

No Flowers, No Chocolates—Pass KOSA. A Mother’s Day message from moms who’ve lost children because of Big Tech’s abhorrent, addictive tactics. Deeply courageous.

Let them eat cake seems to be Trump’s mantra. While everyday consumers are struggling to pay for fuel, food, & daily necessities, he is seeking $1B in taxpayer dollars for his golden ballroom. I’ll continue investigating these corrupt dealings & oppose this gilded boondoggle.

Ads aimed at kids selling firearms—including assault weapons, like the GOAT-15—are deceptive, destructive, & deadly. We need to pass the Responsible Firearms Marketing Act to stop gun manufacturers from targeting the vulnerabilities & insecurities of children.

From fuel to food, Trump’s war of choice in Iran is causing prices to skyrocket for Americans. I joined @cnn to discuss how the Administration is concealing the costs of this war—stonewalling & stalling instead of providing transparent answers.

ICE’s spreading tentacles & vicious tactics threaten CT—so I’m proud & grateful to stand with @govnedlamont & our state legislators as they enact safeguards. I’m fighting for the same reforms in federal law.

The height of absurd irresponsibility—I joined @morningjoe to discuss Trump’s judicial nominees & their inability to provide impartial, honest answers, including refusing to say Biden won the 2020 election.
