After years of work, this $15M grant means the Kinneytown Dam is coming down. It has been a team effort to rejuvenate the Naugatuck Valley & restore a river that is critical to this community. Thanks to @NVCOGct, @SavetheSound, & all the advocates who made this day possible. https://t.co/8ELg93nXgn — PolitiTweet.org

I look forward to President Biden’s signature as we continue to address national security challenges at home & abroad. — PolitiTweet.org

This NDAA will bolster CT’s workforce&ensure our state is at the forefront of defense manufacturing. I’m proud to have fought for measures to strengthen CT’s economy, aid Ukrainian allies, increase servicemembers’ pay&provide protections to survivors of military sexual assault. — PolitiTweet.org

Secretary Carter’s leadership at the Pentagon opened doors to countless women & transgender service members, & his expertise in global affairs prepared our nation to respond to challenges & threats around the world. — PolitiTweet.org

Our bipartisan resolution—passed by the Senate—honors Secretary Carter for the incredible impact he had on our armed services & our nation. His selfless service helped build a stronger, safer America. https://t.co/3OjxXAJJk1 — PolitiTweet.org

It is still searingly vivid; the voices, the faces, the unforgettable moments of the Sandy Hook tragedy. A decade after the heartbreak of that day the survivors & their loved ones have used their courage, strength, & dedication to make change come from unimaginable horror. https://t.co/1rX8ifGgJA — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

We resolved then, & repeat now, that we will never forget those brave, beautiful lives & always support their loved ones. We promised as well that we would redouble our efforts to honor them with action. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

We awake on December 14th with heavy hearts & painful memories of this day 10 years ago. The world changed horribly & lastingly with the shooting at Sandy Hook—leaving us with heartache & grief that remains so real that we can almost touch it. — PolitiTweet.org

Thrilled that Collins Aerospace in Windsor Locks has been tapped to develop the next-gen spacesuits for NASA. CT’s aerospace alley—& the fantastic people that work there—continues to lead the nation to infinity & beyond with the latest & greatest technological innovations. — PolitiTweet.org

Prevent abuse, protect the public, & make sure that big cats are given the proper care—that’s the goal of my recently passed Big Cat Public Safety Act. These powerful, beautiful predators deserve to live in the wild, not people’s homes or backyard zoos. https://t.co/Mg1sAbex6s — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

I support these efforts. Additional federal resources should be made available to help. Police & the public deserve them. — PolitiTweet.org

Social workers in the Willimantic Police Dept provide key services for domestic violence & other challenges. Many police depts are adding these potentially lifesaving mental health service providers. https://t.co/5rWorpfc8I — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Moving vigil yesterday in Milford for Julie Minogue, tragically killed despite desperate pleas for help, should be a call to action. Domestic violence is a scourge that must be fought with stronger laws, more resources,&increased support for survivors, agencies,&law enforcement. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Thank you to all at @Bridges_CT. You're at the tip of the spear in supporting the community’s mental health & addiction recovery. I’m excited to see how this $1M in federal funding will help to modernize your facility & help expand outreach to underserved communities. https://t.co/Zjxv49VxqN — PolitiTweet.org

“Work hard”—that’s the secret to living long, says John Cyrulik, celebrating his 104th birthday today at the Middletown Fire Station, its driveway named in his honor. John is the warmest, nicest guy you’ll ever meet—a WWII vet & 29 year firefighter. Happy Birthday! https://t.co/obOGrQa1ek — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a moral imperative—keeping America’s promise to at-risk Afghan allies who put their lives on the line for our troops & partners. Congress must pass the #AfghanAdjustmentAct before year’s end. — PolitiTweet.org

This $1.4 million DOJ grant for the City of Hartford will be a force multiplier for youth violence intervention. Building a system of constructive community partnerships will help connect young people to resources—giving them the tools to thrive on a new path. https://t.co/YsTBwc4Q8c — PolitiTweet.org
