Citizens in other states have already been purged from the voter rolls because of their illegal election interference. We must never let that happen in Connecticut. If last night was any indication, the President\u2019s push to take over our elections is far from over. He\u2019d rather promote debunked election lies, than do anything to lower costs for the American people. His SAVE Act would not only make it harder for women, people of color, and even our troops, to cast their ballots\u2014it would force states to hand over your voting records to Trump\u2019s lackeys. I will continue to defend your right to vote from these attacks and safeguard your privacy from his administration\u2019s potentially criminal misuse of confidential records.\u201d\n\nRep. Larson has voted against the SAVE Act three times and continues to oppose any effort to make it harder for citizens to cast their ballots. He spoke out against the Trump Administration\u2019s lawsuit against Connecticut in February\u2014and has led efforts to stop the President\u2019s attempts to weaponize federal agencies as part of a national election takeover, including the Social Security Administration (SSA), U.S. Postal Service (USPS), and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Trump\u2019s voter purge database has already been struck down in court, and his DOJ has so far lost every case it has brought to obtain Americans\u2019 voter records.", 1, "2026-07-18T06:58:50Z", "2026-07-18T07:00:34Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://larson.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/larson-statement-court-decision-blocking-trump-administration-access"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.7727690283209085, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
