Rosa DeLauro, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Connecticut's 3rd District, has recently expressed her views on various political matters through a series of tweets. These statements highlight her stance on international sanctions and domestic legislative priorities.

On November 18, 2024, DeLauro called for further action against certain entities and Israeli government officials. She stated, "However, we must go further and sanction other entities and Israeli government officials named directly in our letter for their instigation of violence and instability in the West Bank and the broader region." This comment underscores her position on international accountability regarding regional conflicts.

In another tweet posted on the same day, DeLauro expressed support for President Biden's decision to impose sanctions following her advocacy efforts. She noted, "I am encouraged that @POTUS has taken action in response to a letter I led to sanction Amana, a key funder of settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank. This is a good first step and will make a real impact on the ground." Her remarks reflect optimism about potential positive outcomes from these actions.

On November 19, 2024, DeLauro shifted focus to domestic issues by emphasizing the importance of completing funding bills before year's end. She tweeted, "Congress should be laser-focused on finishing 2025 funding bills before the end of the year. Tune in at 10 AM as @AppropsDems ensure @NIH continues to provide life-saving research that protects our families’ and communities’ health." This statement highlights her commitment to ensuring continued support for essential health research.
