John B. Larson, a U.S. Congressman representing Connecticut's 1st district since 1999, recently shared his thoughts on various topics through a series of tweets. Larson has been an active political figure, previously serving in the Connecticut Senate and maintaining a strong presence in national politics.

On March 14, 2025, Rep. John Larson expressed his support for the University of Connecticut men's basketball team as they prepared to face Creighton. He tweeted: "Let's go @UConnMBB! We'll be cheering you on against Creighton tonight! #BigEastBasketball #bleedblue".

Later that day, he extended festive greetings to those celebrating Holi with the message: "Happy Holi to everyone celebrating in Connecticut and beyond. May the festival of colors bring you and your loved ones joy and renewal."

In another tweet from March 14, 2025, Larson addressed former President Donald Trump's Project 2025 proposal concerning abortion laws. He stated: "Trump's Project 2025 calls for a national abortion ban, with or without Congress. We reintroduced the Stop Comstock Act to repeal the outdated law they plan to weaponize to block women from accessing reproductive care. I trust women to make their own health care decisions."
