Bet you’ve gotten a TON of mail from “Impact CT” supporting Luke Bronin leading up to today’s election. Here’s why ⬇️ Don’t let billionaires buy this seat. Vote John Larson on Row D.

“When twice asked for specific policy differences with Larson, Bronin didn’t provide any.”

Today is the day! Vote @johnlarsonct.bsky.social (Row D). We need our best fighters taking on Trump if we want to beat the billionaires. He can’t be bought and won’t back down. He’ll always fight to working families.

I’ve never forgotten who I work for. Not billionaires, CEOs, or dark money groups. I work for you. Together, we’re going to win this race, send them packing, and remind them that we can’t be bought. Today’s the day –– vote John Larson on Row D!

Listen to AOC. Luke Bronin is NOT the change we need. He is the candidate his AI data center billionaire backers want. Vote JOHN LARSON ON ROW D today to elect a battle-tested champion who has always, and will always, fight for the working class.

It's past time for the data center billionaires behind Luke Bronin to ante up and pay their fair share. That's what I'm fighting for. I'll always, always stand with the working families of this district. Let's do this! Make your voice heard tomorrow. Vote John Larson on Row D!

We are a country in absolute crisis. We need our toughest fighters. I've taken on Trump, DOGE, and ICE, and won. I'll never stop fighting for the working families of this district. Make your voice heard tomorrow. Vote John Larson on Row D! Let's win this.

There’s nothing better than getting out across the district and meeting with the people I’m fighting for every single day. I’m grateful for every conversation, every handshake, and every reminder of why this work matters. Tomorrow's the day. Vote John Larson on Row D! Let's go!

I’ve always believed that equality means equality for everyone. No matter who you are, who you love, or how you identify, you deserve to live with dignity, freedom, and the same rights as every American. Thank you @hrc.org for standing with me. I'll always stand with you.

Thank you @lacadenabomba and DJ Red for having me and Rep. Minnie Gonzalez this morning! We talked about the stakes of tomorrow's election, and why it’s essential we have a proven leader standing up for working people against the billionaire class. VOTE ROW D TOMORROW!

I'm proud of the work that Rep. Hernández and I are collaborating on to fight for FULL, EQUAL benefits for Puerto Rico. From SSI, to Medicaid, to SNAP, we will keep fighting to end the second-class treatment of Puerto Rico. It's an honor to have his support - seguimos luchando!

Luke Bronin has been lying to voters. He must return this corporate PAC money immediately.

John Larson @johnlarsonct.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
AOC is right, as usual. If we want to win against Trump and MAGA authoritarians, Democrats must be unflinchingly pro-working-class. Voters need to be wary of billionaire-backed corporate Democrats like luke bronin who are trying to move our party to the right.

Progressives are gaining ground across the country, and the ultra-wealthy are flooding this race with millions in dark money. They know I won’t compromise on progressive values, and that’s exactly why they’re coming after us. We’re ready for the fight.

As Emily McEvoy says: "Larson is facing a primary from the political right, not the left." "Luke Bronin has drawn rightful criticism for his friendly relationships with private equity and AI industry CEOs... he was even on his political donors’ payroll." www.ctinsider.com/opinion/arti...

Your endorsement was nice. The donation you gave us last March (this cycle!) was sweet. But campaigning for us & telling people to VOTE JOHN ON ROW D? Luke, you really didn’t have to. (Sorry for the blurry zoom, we don't have AI billionaires funding us to enhance the photo!)

Thank you Rep. Jane Garibay, Rep. Peggy Sayers, & Sen. Con O'Leary for coming out to support us in Windsor Locks today - the momentum is REAL! Remember, early voting goes thru August 9th, and polls close at 8 PM! VOTE JOHN LARSON ON ROW D to join our fight for working people!

THIS is why I'm in this. To deliver for people who need THEIR voice - not a billionaire's voice, not Greenwich's voice - in Congress. Luke Bronin claims he turned Hartford around. It wasn't him. It was the community. Early voting starts August 3rd.

As a proud product of public housing, public education, and public service, I never forget what side of the street I grew up on. I will always stand with working people. I’m enormously proud to stand with AFSCME Council 4, and honored to have their support during this campaign.

It was an honor to announce our campaign's endorsement from the BOLD PAC. I will keep fighting for funding, resources, and seats at the table to reflect the truth that every Hispanic family is a valuable and irreplaceable part of the American tapestry.

As @martinomalley.bsky.social, Lori Pelletier, and @mattlesser.bsky.social said yesterday: billionaires are pouring money into this election to install corporate Democrat Luke Bronin. I'm proud to have always been on the side of working families. We won't let the billionaire class win.

John Larson @johnlarsonct.bsky.social · 30/07/2026
I'm proud to stand with labor and social security advocates to send a clear message to Luke Bronin and the billionaires: we’ll stand up to anyone who tries to undermine workers' rights, wages & benefits.

When we have a rogue President waging an illegal war, giving tax cuts to billionaires, and tearing families apart, you need a leader who will fight back with everything they have - not another corporate Democrat.

🚨 NEW AD! Senator Murphy said it best. In this moment, we need our strongest fighters. I have a record standing for working families against the billionaire class and taking on Trump and winning. I’m proud to have Chris Murphy’s support. On to victory! #CT01 #CTpolitics

Great day at the Southington Italian-American festival! Always a joy to connect with Southington residents. Southington Democrats are united - they want a proven fighter against Trump, ICE, and this lawless administration. That’s what I’ve fought to deliver, and I’ll keep fighting.

Thank you to Rev. Dr. Albert Bailey & the Shiloh Baptist family for welcoming me this morning. Grateful to speak about the fights that matter to working families: protecting & expanding Social Security, defending voting rights, & making billionaires finally pay their fair share.

John Larson @johnlarsonct.bsky.social · 26/07/2026
This campaign is about working people. It's about making sure you can take home a livable wage & the benefits you've earned. It's about standing up to billionaires & the corporate class who'd rather get rich off your backs than pay their fair share. #CT01 #UnionStrong

John Larson @johnlarsonct.bsky.social · 25/07/2026
When a crowd like this of union members and leaders turns out, it shows exactly what this campaign is about: working families. Thank you to Keith Brothers, Joe Toner, and the CT Building Trades for showing up, showing out, and pounding the pavement with us. #UnionStrong #CT01
