Hi John,
Chaos feels like the only way to describe the national news right now. But here in Connecticut, we’re not standing by while Trump sows division and dysfunction.
Your CT Democrats are standing up, and speaking out.
Here’s what your democratic leaders are doing for you:
On the Ground in Connecticut
This past Saturday, on April 5, thousands of Connecticut residents joined the nationwide "Hands Off!" protests, holding demonstrations across the state, including Hartford, New Haven, and Danbury.
Standing Strong in the Senate
New Jersey Senator Cory Booker held the Senate floor with a marathon speech lasting over 25 hours, protesting the Trump administration's policies. Our Senator, Chris Murphy, stood in solidarity with his colleague the entire time. This powerful act underscored the urgent fight to defend our democratic institutions.
Speaking Out
Our full CT federal delegation is pushing back hard on a devastating education policy shift from the U.S. Department of Education, demanding action to protect schools and students across the country from Education Secretary Linda McMahon.
Leading Locally
On April 8th, Democratic legislators held the line at the Connecticut State Capitol, speaking out in defense of civil rights and the rule of law. State Senators made it clear: Connecticut won’t back down when civil rights are under attack.
While Trump-directed chaos might dominate the headlines, your Democratic leaders are about action. From the streets to the Senate floor, from classrooms to the Capitol, Connecticut Democrats are showing what real leadership looks like.
Thank you for standing with us.
Sincerely,
Your CT Dems
