Connecticut Attorney General, dad, fly fisher. Love food, especially local food.
Another big win in court. A Connecticut judge denied ExxonMobil’s motion to strike our case against them.
ExxonMobil peddled climate lies for decades while profiting off the harm.
We’re aggressively prosecuting this case to reveal all their lies and protect our communities.

Today, I joined a bipartisan coalition of attorneys generals urging Shopify to crack down on merchants selling illegal e-cigarettes.
These bootleg vapes are illegally imported, untested, unsafe, and target youth. We’re shutting off the supply wherever it exists.

@blumenthal.senate.gov and I have fought to ensure travelers are compensated when airlines cause delays/cancel flights. The Trump admin is now dropping a proposal that would have required airlines to pay passengers when their plans are upended. This is unacceptable and we’ll continue to fight.

Ding dong, DOGE is dead.
Donald Trump invited an unelected, erratic, and unaccountable billionaire to comb through our personal data and hack our government to pieces. DOGE was an unlawful utter disaster, and that’s why we sued.

A federal judge has dismissed the baseless charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James.
This is another humiliating defeat for Donald Trump and his legal team and a victory for rule of law and our justice system. @newyorkstateag.bsky.social

We stopped the Trump Administration from illegally dismantling 4 vital federal agencies that Connecticut families rely on. These agencies protect workers, support museums and libraries, and help minority-owned businesses. #Connecticut

Today we announced a $714,446 settlement with dental practices that paid unlawful fees to recruit Medicaid patients.
Ivan Makar and Oleg Losin, the owners of Dent Plus and L&M, allegedly paid a third-party patient recruiting company $135 for each CT Medicaid patient the company referred to them.

The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority denied the sale of Aquarion. This sale would doubled water bills for 700,000 Connecticut customers and gutted public oversight and consumer protections. This deal was a costly loser for CT families, and I urged PURA to reject this deal.

The court has confirmed our $7.4B settlement with #PurduePharma. The Sacklers are permanently exiled from the addiction industry. No money can undo the damage, but this settlement is a promise that we will keep fighting for victims, families, treatment, and prevention. #opioidcrisis #Connecticut

Proud to stand with Sierra Club of CT during their “Yes to Wind” Week of Action to highlight the importance offshore wind. Revolution Wind was fully approved and almost done when Trump issued his baseless stop work order. We sued and got it back on track to deliver clean energy. #Connecticut

I'm joining a coalition of attorneys general to urge the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia to uphold an order to halt the Trump's Administration's flawed "expedited removal" process. This process is putting Americans at risk for unlawful detention & deportation without due process.

Shortly after midnight, we filed for a temporary restraining order to block the Trump Administration from demanding that states “undo” SNAP benefits already paid out to millions of Americans.

Important update. SNAP is FULLY FUNDED in Connecticut as of today. The state has given assurance that it will backstop payment should the Trump administration persist in its callous effort to starve American families for political leverage.

Court orders are non-optional. It’s clear that Donald Trump has no grasp of what is going on in his own White House beyond marble bathrooms and grotesque ballrooms, and no concern for the needless suffering he is inflicting on American families, including millions of his own supporters.

Donald Trump and Linda McMahon want to impose an illegal MAGA litmus test on billions of dollars in loan forgiveness for public servants. This is cruel, this is wrong, this is against the law, and we’re suing to stop it.
