Attorney General William Tong
@agwilliamtong
We're suing to stop the Trump admin from holding critical USDA funding hostage. Trump's message to CT is: fall in line with extreme MAGA ideology, or your families go hungry. These conditions are unlawful we're suing to ensure CT gets every penny of USDA funding that our taxpayers paid for.

What the hell. PURA got this dead wrong. This decision delivers $68 million more in profits and hundreds of thousands of dollars in bonus pay for corporate executives. CT families and businesses cannot afford the bills they get now, and they cannot afford this increase. We're going to keep fighting.
We’re suing the Dept of Education over a new rule that could unlawfully limit access to federal student loans for those pursuing professional programs. The Trump/McMahon plan to drive down education costs by barring student loans defies Congress, the law, reality, and will do real damage.
Yesterday, I argued before the PURA to reject the sale of Aquarion. The board already rejected this deal in Nov. Nothing has changed. Yet earlier this month, PURA reversed course and preliminary approved it. 720k+ people across 62+ cities are now at risk of higher water bills and weaker oversight.
The Supreme Court already made it clear Trump didn't have the authority to impose the first round of tariffs. Now, the administration is trying again under a different statute that doesn't apply. We're suing him again.
This is a bombshell that blows open the entire Aquarion decision. PURA completely missed half a billion dollars in rate increases. Their entire decision rested on bad math based on incomplete information. There's no question that PURA must immediately reconsider its decision and reject the sale.
Connecticut families cannot afford higher bills. PURA's decision puts corporate profits ahead of ratepayers. We'll keep fighting in every single proceeding before PURA to ensure Connecticut families do not pay a penny more than absolutely necessary.

I stood alongside state and federal leaders as Governor Lamont signed into law Senate Bill 397. This law strengthens accountability for federal immigration enforcement and ensures people can seek justice when their rights are violated. No one is above the law, including federal officials.
During Mental Health Awareness Month, I want to make it very clear on behalf of the State of Connecticut: mental health parity is the law of the land. There are major health insurers in this state who are not compliant with the law. There needs to be accountability.
We’re demanding the immediate release of Rihan, a Cheshire High School student detained by ICE. Rihan and his family entered the US legally on humanitarian parole. His father helped US troops by working as an interpreter in Afghanistan. They were doing everything by the book to build a life here.

Sadly and predictably, Iran appears to have achieved escalation dominance by closing the Strait of Hormuz. I asked what plans the government have for a post-conflict region where Iran retains the upper hand because it can dictate global energy prices and continue to threaten gulf nations.
