Jahana Hayes, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Connecticut’s 5th district, recently shared updates and reflections through a series of tweets. Hayes, who replaced Elizabeth Esty in 2019, is actively engaging with her constituents on pressing issues.
On March 9, 2025, Hayes announced an upcoming event aimed at discussing the federal budget. "HAPPENING SOON: I am in #Avon breaking down what is in the federal budget. Join our town hall live." This town hall was intended to provide insights into budgetary allocations and engage community members directly.
The following day, on March 10, 2025, she highlighted her historic role as a representative for Connecticut's congressional district. "First Black Woman to represent CT- I am the storm!" This statement underscores her pioneering position and ongoing commitment to representation.
Later that day, Hayes reflected on the outcomes of the town hall meeting held in Avon. She emphasized her dedication to addressing constituent concerns regarding the proposed budget framework. "Had an informative townhall yesterday in #Avon. I answered questions about the proposed budget framework- but more importantly I listened to the fear and frustration my constituents are feeling." She assured her constituents that she would not support any budget that removes essential services.
