Sen. Rob Sampson issued the following statement after news broke that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) sent payments of $59 million last week to luxury hotels in New York City to house illegal immigrants.

“Was any FEMA money sent to Connecticut for similar purposes?

It’s a simple question.

Gov. Lamont should get an answer, and he should inform state taxpayers.

He is already on record stating that all illegal aliens are ‘welcome’ in Connecticut.

Even the most violent.

So, how much is being spent to house them in Connecticut?

It’s our money. Tell us.”

Sen. Rob Sampson issued the following statement in reaction to the CT attorney general’s comments today about DOGE:

“Blah, blah, blah. "He" is the one fear mongering.

Funny how the highest-ranking lawyer in Connecticut is so willfully loose with the facts.

"He" is defending outrageous government waste.

"He" is defending the obvious and widespread abuse of millions and millions of dollars of our money.

For example, he’s defending $7.9 million of our money being directed to educate Sri Lankan journalists on avoiding ‘binary-gendered language’? Good luck with that laughable defense!

We all get it.

He is attempting to be ‘Mr. Anti-Trump’.

Who cares?”
