In a tweet posted at 17:31 UTC, Congressman Carter announced a legal victory against the Musk-Trump administration.

I’ll keep saying it — we are fighting for you procedurally, legally, and through advocacy.” This message highlights his commitment to opposing what he describes as reckless actions by the administration.
Later that day at 18:20 UTC, Carter supported Senator Booker’s stance against a legislative measure known as cloture and criticized a continuing resolution (CR).

Following this at 18:32 UTC, Carter echoed similar sentiments regarding Senator Murphy’s position on another continuing resolution associated with Trump and Musk. He tweeted: “Senator Murphy is spot on— Vote No on cloture and Vote No on the Trump/Musk CR!” reinforcing his disapproval of these legislative proposals.
