Hate crimes are on the rise & Congress must take action to help stop this bigoted violence. 1/ Here’s a quick thread on why the Senate should waste no time in passing the Jabara-Heyer NO HATE Act as part of the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
8/ The NO HATE Act has support across the ideological, political, & geographic spectrums. I’m proud of the bipartisan coalition we’ve built in Congress & am grateful for the advocates working tirelessly to stop this violence & get this legislation passed. https://t.co/0TtW3f7iuI — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
7/ To get lasting change we can’t just lock up those convicted of these crimes, but must also work to combat bias & bigotry. The NO HATE Act would allow courts to implement alternative sentencing—requiring people to do educational training/community service to counter their hate. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
6/ Hotlines are especially important because they help to give victims a voice, build trust, & provide an opportunity for people to be connected to community-based support systems. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
5/ The NO HATE Act will improve reporting systems so there is a robust process in place. The primary tactics: Grants to states & localities for training, outreach, specialized units, & reporting system enhancements. State hotlines victims can directly call to report an attack. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
4/ Right now local reporting systems are woefully underutilized because of systemic problems in identifying & recording these crimes. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
3/ We know that knowledge is power, but when it comes to hate crimes the FBI & other law enforcement don’t have the data to fully understand the scope & complexities of the problem hate crimes pose—which is necessary to implement comprehensive, meaningful solutions. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
2/ Hate crimes are an especially egregious form of violence because they not only seriously harm the person who was attacked, but traumatize & terrify entire communities to which they belong. — PolitiTweet.org

Gun violence again hits home. It does so often. We cannot be numbed or cease being outraged.https://t.co/gPsMGBUljM — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Beyond moving to walk hand in hand with my friend @GabbyGiffords through @GiffordsCourage’s gun violence memorial, where each flower represents a life lost to gun violence. The truth is our country has done enough thinking & praying about this crisis—the time for action is now. https://t.co/bEwywRlucU — PolitiTweet.org

The FAA must immediately begin implementing the NTSB recommendations for the safety sake of all who fly in these living flight history experience airplanes. I will demand a timeline for implementing these recommendations & see to it that these changes are promptly implemented. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
The NTSB accident report reveals a series of failures on the part of Collings’ staff & reinforces my call for the FAA to tighten its regulations & oversight. For too long, the FAA has deferred to the historic airplane’s owner on safety compliance. https://t.co/Cwn33JbSQ0 — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
35 AGs from red & blue states agree, the NO HATE Act would help to fix the inaccurate & incomplete data that often stymies & stalls real progress on combating hate crimes. Hate must not be able to spread, grow, & terrorize. Congress must act. https://t.co/qSKtGDU3Mq — PolitiTweet.org

Officer Billy Evans made the ultimate sacrifice protecting & defending our democracy. On this sad, somber day, my thoughts & deep condolences are with his loved ones & the entire US @CapitolPolice force. — PolitiTweet.org

I am closely monitoring the situation in Branford. Thinking of the first responders & all those involved. https://t.co/RXdbFfZY2U — PolitiTweet.org

A powerful vision & starting point, this is a blueprint for building a better CT, helping many projects that I & others have advocated. Now Congress must listen—incorporating local input—but move ASAP to get the investment going. https://t.co/94R32tVPS0 — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
I’m working to pass Sen. @maziehirono’s valuable bill along with my NO HATE Act, which will spur more reporting of hate crimes, greater penalties, & more. Action against hate is urgent. https://t.co/oMfYvSxHUr — PolitiTweet.org

Impressed & excited to see the VA vaccinating so many vets—along with spouses & caregivers—at the state living facility at Rocky Hill. The SAVE LIVES Act is working. The VA is saving vets’ & loved ones’ lives. https://t.co/w0PVjlmSMR — PolitiTweet.org

Recent data shows a deeply dangerous rise in participation by active duty military in terrorist plots & attacks. On the Armed Services Comm. I’ll seek hearings & disclosure, so Americans understand & Congress combats this cancer—a metastasizing menace. Real action now. — PolitiTweet.org

The achievement gap existed before the pandemic & will exist after. The federal government needs to step up on a permanent basis with a reliable flow of funding to truly guarantee equal education opportunity for all students. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Excited today to discuss the new federal funding that will turbocharge the Governor’s LEAP program, helping ensure students recover from pandemic learning losses, finish the school year strong, & have resources to catch up during the summer. https://t.co/ptNKd4Zfru — PolitiTweet.org

Notice to Twitter, Facebook, eBay, Shopify & others: STOP enabling sales of false & stolen vaccine cards. Still happening, according to news reports—these companies should be held accountable. https://t.co/fJiGA26vw0 — PolitiTweet.org

Phenomenal! Thousands of vaccinations as a result of dedicated outreach—canvassing by @FairHavenCHC’s volunteers & staff. Proud & excited to join them today. https://t.co/UiCkPWvd8X — PolitiTweet.org

A good first step—but more hard work to root out white supremacy & dangerous extremism is still ahead. This leadership is necessary to ensure America’s military remains the strongest in history—supporting & defending the Constitution against all adversaries, foreign & domestic. — PolitiTweet.org
