Third day in four at the Bushnell Park skating rink with the family. Helps we live within walking distance. So much fun. If you haven’t been, parking is easy, skating AND rentals are free, and the staff are super friendly. https://t.co/av6yOUZfGD — PolitiTweet.org

So awesome that ice skating is back in Bushnell Park. Thanks to all the sponsors who made it happen. Went w my 10 year old hockey player tonight and while he ran circles around me, I didn’t fall once! https://t.co/6i0xbao3Xv — PolitiTweet.org

It been a long year. How about a feel good story about government working how it’s supposed to? Here’s a behind the scenes look at how one idea from a small Connecticut company to help grow manufacturing jobs turned into a law in 2021. https://t.co/BCRFWDK2BK — PolitiTweet.org

This is the greatest apples to oranges comparison ever. The question is, SHOULD they pay 40% federal? Well, the top 1% controls 30% of U.S. wealth and regressive state/local taxes means they pay a non-fed rate MUCH lower than 30%. In that context, 40% sounds more than fair. — PolitiTweet.org

I went to Manchester Hospital today to thank the front line health care workers for all they do. They are exhausted, mostly because people still refuse to get vaccinated. Normally they have 3-4 COVID patients in beds. Heading into Christmas they have 20. 15 are unvaccinated. https://t.co/IZQRunmhv7 — PolitiTweet.org

Today we announced a new agreement to help us refurbish Union Station in New Haven, adding more retail and more connectivity to the surrounding neighborhoods. https://t.co/6u587zG3gO — PolitiTweet.org

I also think “community of interest” means something very different in Connecticut than other states. Without counties, our identity is strongly tied to the town/city we live in and so our strongest community of interest is usually just our municipality. — PolitiTweet.org

Grabbed some fantastic jerk chicken for lunch today at Awesome Sauce Caribbean Flavors on State Street in Bridgeport. Good to meet Stacy and her team. Support local restaurants this holiday!! https://t.co/2jo9lEhxiR — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to my friend @MayorCarolineCT for joining me today at one of Stamford’s vaccine clinics to talk about the importance of adult boosters and childhood vaccines. Stamford is at the top of the state w a 85% vaccination rate! It’s never too late to get protected! https://t.co/T4YvNeobKX — PolitiTweet.org

I just think we have learned a lot since the spring of 2020 about how to manage the virus and keep schools open. And now we tools we didn’t have then, like vaccines and rapid tests. — PolitiTweet.org

There are so many amazing people in this state. I stopped by Bridgeport Rescue Mission today, got the chance to talk w clients but also some dedicated volunteers. Mary and Paige volunteer most days of the week to keep the food pantry stocked. Thank you!! https://t.co/CP8chgJi9M — PolitiTweet.org

Mercy Housing and Shelter is right across the street from our house in Hartford. Great to finally get over there this morning to meet the team. They do such great work to keep people housed. https://t.co/sJUyWNFR8D — PolitiTweet.org

I agree that the cost crisis in higher ed cuts across public, private non-profit and for-profit. Two years ago I advocated that Congress reform higher ed law to hold all schools accountable for cost and I wrote a detailed plan to do it. https://t.co/qic47p94yY — PolitiTweet.org

I get that you want to politicize this, but Connecticut was aggressive about reopening our schools. I know Twitter is a terrible place for nuanced debate, but we owe it to our kids to seriously weigh the equities before closing any schools again. All I’m saying. — PolitiTweet.org
