Rosa DeLauro, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Connecticut's 3rd District, has been vocal on various issues through her social media platform. In a series of tweets, she addressed concerns ranging from economic policies to food safety regulations and local funding threats.

On January 22, 2025, DeLauro criticized former President Donald Trump and his associates for their perceived disconnect with the struggles of ordinary Americans. She stated: "G.O.P= Gold Over Progress... Trump's billionaire buddies know nothing about struggling with the high cost of living... Don't be fooled, he's showing us whose corner he's in." She emphasized that House Democrats are committed to fighting for lower costs, affordable healthcare, and fairer wages.

The following day, January 23, 2025, DeLauro expressed pride in her role in advocating for a ban on Red 3 dye by the Biden Administration. She highlighted the need for greater accountability and regulation concerning harmful food dyes infiltrating the food supply: "I was proud to lead the push for the Biden Administration to finalize a ban on Red 3... As a country, we must demand more accountability and regulation of harmful food dyes that have infiltrated our food supply."

On January 24, 2025, DeLauro shared both positive and negative news regarding funding in Connecticut's 3rd District. She noted that over $15 million had been allocated this month alone to aid rail commuters and improve neighborhoods. However, she warned against potential threats from Trump: "Good news: Just this month alone, CT’s 3rd District received over $15 million in funding... Bad news: Trump is threatening to illegally take it all away... That’s why I’m fighting against his unlawful executive order."
