Rosa DeLauro, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Connecticut’s 3rd district since 1991, shared her thoughts on various issues through a series of tweets. Her statements reflect her perspectives on legislative matters and education funding, as well as her concerns over federal infrastructure funding policies.
On May 21, 2025, DeLauro expressed condolences for Congressman Connolly, acknowledging his contributions as a legislator and his role as a family man. She stated: “Congressman Connolly was an effective legislator, a true fighter for Americans, and a loving father and husband. My thoughts are with his loved ones at this time.”
Later that day, she highlighted the importance of educational funding by tweeting: “This is why we need to fund our schools.” The tweet underscores her advocacy for improved financial support for educational institutions.
On May 22, 2025, DeLauro criticized the President’s approach to infrastructure funding in states that supported Democratic candidates. She remarked: “The President is punishing states that voted for Democrats by stealing critical construction and infrastructure funding. Working to prevent flooding caused by disasters or failed infrastructure should never be political. This is a life-threatening abuse of power.” Her comments reflect concerns about the politicization of essential public works funding.
Rosa DeLauro has been actively involved in legislative processes since replacing Bruce Morrison in Congress in 1991. Born in New Haven, Connecticut in 1943, she continues to reside there while serving her constituents.
