When we talk to voters about kitchen-table issues we win. In small towns, in the suburbs, in the cities, we reached out, and we heard CT voters, loud and clear: support hardworking families and protect the country we love from the wannabe king.

Withholding funds for SNAP puts millions of Americans at risk of hunger. People should not go hungry because of dysfunction in Washington. I've joined a coalition of Governors in calling on the Trump Administration to immediately release funding and support this vital program.

CT Republicans like Ryan Fazio COULD stand up for the 1,895 families in his district whose food assistance is being cut off by Trump. Will he?

Trump is bulldozing the White House to build himself a ballroom while cutting off food aid to 350,000 people in our state three days before you go to vote. The Republicans on your ballot are cheering Trump along. @GovNedLamont is defending CT families https://t.co/J6Upq0xk1s

.@GovNedLamont made sure WIC payments got to people in CT, despite the Trump shutdown. Democrats are fighting hard to keep food banks stocked and get SNAP to the most vulnerable before Trump cuts them off. Where are CT Republicans? Cheering Trump on.

When Republicans are pre-butting a pro-democracy rally like No Kings and making shit up left and right to scare people, you know they're losing and in panic mode. Pedal to the floor.

Republicans cheer and engineer shutdowns because shutdowns erode people's faith in government, and that benefits the corporations and billionaires who want to push government of the way, so they can amass more power and wealth.

Just naked and brazen corruption. All states represented by Democrats in the Senate. Time to stiffen our spines and demand that we only fund a government that obeys the law.

As Trump's tariffs and extreme funding cuts continue to kill jobs and reduce investments, American families are paying the price. In the middle of a cost of living crisis, our families need real solutions.

If we continue the progress we have made, the state’s pension debt, largely accumulated from 1939 to 2011, will be fully funded within a generation. This is the legacy we are leaving our children and grandchildren, and one we should all be proud to reach.

The upgrades by Moody’s and Fitch are likely campaign fodder for Gov. Ned Lamont, who is widely expected to announce a bid for a third term.

The foundational principle of America is being able to express your beliefs without having to fear for your life. That's disturbingly and increasingly not the case. For the sake of our kids and country, we have to stop this from becoming the new normal of public life. Prayers

Political violence of any kind has no place in our country and is never acceptable. The tragic attack on Charlie Kirk today is absolutely awful. My prayers are with him and his family.

This is so tragic. The endless horror of gun violence in this country should be unacceptable to all of us. And there can be no tolerance for political violence in America. I’m pulling for Mr. Kirk and thinking of his family and the survivors.
