Between 1778-1779 Trumbull served in the Continental Army as a paymaster and as comptroller of the treasury. He was appointed secretary and aide-de-camp to General George Washington in 1781 and was elected to the First, Second, and Third Congresses (March 4, 1789-March 3, 1795). Trumbull did not seek reelection, having become a candidate for Senator. He became Speaker of the House of Representatives during the Second Congress and was elected to the United States Senate where he served from March 4, 1795, to June 10, 1796, when he resigned.
Trumball became lieutenant governor of Connecticut from 1796 until the death of the Governor in December 1797, when he became the Governor. He was reelected for eleven consecutive terms, and served from 1797 until his death in Lebanon, Conn., August 7, 1809.
