At the Capitol, I was proud to ring CT’s Liberty Bell at noon, an annual reminder of our common obligation to bend the moral arc of the universe toward justice. Thank you to the CT MLK Day Commission for another memorable program with extraordinary honorees. https://t.co/9pX22mWO0U — PolitiTweet.org

In West Hartford, student essays & musical performances—capturing the meaning of MLK for America’s future—were a highlight. Their dedication to the fight for social justice is unquenchable & galvanizing. https://t.co/kYFdhPW6B1 — PolitiTweet.org

Stirring service at East End Baptist Tabernacle Church in Bridgeport recalling the courage, conscience, & conviction of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King. Thank you Rev. Dr. Charles Stallworth for your leadership, & to the congregation for your wonderfully warm welcome. — PolitiTweet.org

Strong step by ATF on gun safety with its new final rule cracking down on accessories that make short barreled semiautomatic weapons more lethal. Stabilizing braces convert pistols to long rifles & they should be treated that way by ATF. Bravo for this critical life-saving move. — PolitiTweet.org

Beautiful tributes in music & memories to Quentin “Q“ Williams, a Middletown state legislator whose life was cut short tragically just a day after his swearing-in to a new term. The church service eloquently captured his life & legacy, both large & lasting. — PolitiTweet.org

More than 30 wonderful new citizens take the oath in New Haven’s federal courthouse today—another Immigration & Naturalization ceremony marked by joy & pride. We are a nation of immigrants—the greatest nation in the world. — PolitiTweet.org

A $2 million grant to Our Piece of the Pie means skills, jobs, & careers for 100’s more Hartford youth. This investment in justice involved young people provides a positive path forward, away from harm. https://t.co/UV6Py9Q3f0 — PolitiTweet.org

Ukraine needs & deserves Abrams tanks—our best—along with longer range artillery, more air defense Patriot systems, jet fighters, & more. Hesitating now means emboldening Putin’s most viscous advisers. — PolitiTweet.org

Deeply impressed by The Haven—Mercy Housing’s newest young adult living program in Hartford. Comfortable living, excellent staff, essential supportive services—all make this facility a welcoming, worthwhile transition space as young people find their place in the world. https://t.co/2RhR0I9Tir — PolitiTweet.org

Exciting day at the Waterbury-Oxford Airport as Tradewind Aviation cuts the ribbon for 20 new PC-12 NGX planes, serving charters & scheduled flights around New England & beyond. Their fleet will create high skill jobs & attract new businesses. The Zipkin family knows how to fly. https://t.co/Y5z2hBE29W — PolitiTweet.org

The Registry will enable better prevention, diagnosis, & care for these heroes. There is no question we must reauthorize the registry & increase resources. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Proud to stand with New Haven firefighters today to announce a near doubling in federal funds for the Firefighter Cancer Registry. Cancer is the number one cause of firefighters’ death in the line of duty—because of all the toxic chemicals they ingest or inhale. https://t.co/geCCkO7Iom — PolitiTweet.org

No better use of federal infrastructure funds than vital upgrades to Rt 8 between Shelton & Seymour—a key heavily traveled artery. In fact a more than $60 million federal investment, announced today, will enable improved paving, lighting, access, & other improvements. https://t.co/TiLQrGMOjm — PolitiTweet.org

This is a basic need & LIHEAP is the ultimate safety net for those struggling to make ends meet. In the recent Omnibus we secured $5 billion for LIHEAP, which will bring tens of millions of dollars back to CT families. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
No family should have to choose between heating & eating. Expanded federal heating assistance funds are more vital than ever—with a 27% increase in LIHEAP applications & rising fuel prices. I announced an additional $5B on the way—with @GovNedLamont—as part of the budget package. — PolitiTweet.org

A solemn, deeply sad procession at the state Capitol to salute state Rep Quentin "Q" Williams, a beautiful life cut short, a brilliant light extinguished. Thank you to his wonderful family for sharing him. — PolitiTweet.org

Impressive business community at the Norwalk Chamber of Commerce breakfast this morning—hosted by Rich Cunningham head of Ed’s Garage Doors, a great & growing business. I’m hoping to be invited to a few garage door openings. https://t.co/0QsCvdSBcP — PolitiTweet.org

I presented a high school diploma to Christian Kosovic, whose family came to me 10 yrs ago when he was battling leukemia with Methotrexate treatment—which the manufacturer said it would cease making. We helped get him the drug, & now he’s bound for college. Congratulations! https://t.co/RSED0DsgxQ — PolitiTweet.org

The Kids Online Safety Act, Open App Markets Act & EARN IT Act will restore accountability & protect consumers & competition. I'm all in, @POTUS—Congressional action is overdue. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
The President & I agree the time for tech accountability is now. Big Tech is harming our kids, violating privacy, & undermining competition with no real ramifications or consequences. https://t.co/0IbF4wqaGW — PolitiTweet.org

Wethersfield’s firefighters—the oldest volunteer fire service in New England—need more breathing protective units. To buy 68 new ones, I announced a $384,045 federal grant yesterday. Very excited, & very thankful, to be with these heroic first responders. https://t.co/VGtiNTfmI2 — PolitiTweet.org

Chronic fatigue, headaches, shortness of breath, blood clots, & worse—all symptoms of Long COVID, suffered by up to 30% of all who test COVID positive. It’s costly & deadly, which is why we need more treatment & research money like the federal $10 million I announced today. https://t.co/bOdpj6oMnp — PolitiTweet.org

On this fifth anniversary of Morad Tahbaz’s inhumane, unconscionable detention by Iran, global outrage continues to grow. Grievously ill & indisputably innocent, Morad must be reunited with his family. Iran: free him, now. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
These deadly, dangerous sleepers should have been removed long ago from Facebook & other marketplaces—as @janschakowsky & I demanded. Disgraceful inaction puts kids at persistent peril & unsuspecting parents at potential grief. https://t.co/egHB8dVKr4 — PolitiTweet.org
