Americans deserve to know why we’re (again) emboldening adversaries (here, its ISIS)&harming allies&partners, (the Kurds). Giving Turkish forces free rein in this conflict raises risks—spreading conflagration&strengthening terrorists. No strategy is a windfall for Russia&Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

My Republican colleagues’ silence seems unsustainable&inexcusable, given the threat to our national security as well as the integrity of our democratic institutions. Time is running out for Republicans in the House&Senate to be on the right side of history.https://t.co/nmRr5Zv6iN — PolitiTweet.org

Great to speak w/A.I. Prince Technical HS students. They made clear the more students learn about the dangers of vaping the greater chance they'll resist peer pressure & talk to other friends about the harms. The most powerful persuader is what young people say to their friends. https://t.co/akOf7rUj9C — PolitiTweet.org

The ACA has saved lives, but Trump & Republicans are fighting to gut & dismantle this proven law. The catch… they don’t have a plan that would improve Americans’ health & protect people with pre-existing conditions. https://t.co/ZyEToujGSx — PolitiTweet.org

Can America recover—retrieve our moral core—from this repugnant scandal unfolding in plain sight, in real time? This Presidential scandal is not a victimless crime. The American people—our national security & self worth—are shamefully wounded. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Trump dealing away American national security&integrity as if they belong to him, like the Trump Towers. They belong to us, the American people. Once he sells them—to foreign leaders for personal political benefit—our democracy, decency&national defense are deeply undermined. — PolitiTweet.org

Interference by Ukraine, China or any other foreign country in our elections will not be tolerated. Full Stop. Our democracy & national security are not up for grabs by whoever can provide the President political dirt. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
President Trump was holding American taxpayer dollars hostage to shake down a foreign leader for dirt on his political opponent. It’s not just crazy—it’s illegal & a betrayal of his oath of office. https://t.co/dzJRFCkdVV — PolitiTweet.org

As I have warned repeatedly over years, e-cigarettes deliver powerfully addictive nicotine, dangerous chemicals, & unknown poisons. The FDA must act before there are more deaths & more lives put in peril. — PolitiTweet.org

The vaping epidemic has now hit home—tragically. This epidemic now exploding in force has turned deadly here. Every day teens are starting lifetimes of addiction & disease, thinking vaping is harmless. — PolitiTweet.org

At a minimum, Amazon is falling far short of its responsibility to ensure contractors are following labor laws safety regulations. I'll continue to press until they stop looking the other way as contracted drivers are forced into unsafe vehicles & given dangerous workloads. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Deeply disappointed by Amazon’s evasive response—it gives me no confidence that they are committed to preventing these types of tragedies. Amazon’s claim that it regularly audits&sanctions delivery service providers ring hollow given the troubling facts laid out in these reports. — PolitiTweet.org

Senators say Amazon’s response to questions on driver safety is disappointing https://t.co/dJuFFzeTdJ

Companies should not be allowed to hide the real cost of cable from consumers & sneak new fees onto monthly bills. Time for Congress to pass the TRUE Fees Act to require phone, cable, & internet companies to be honest with consumers about the cost of their services. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Cable companies use confusing&hidden fees to take an average of $450 from customers’ pockets per year. @ConsumerReports sheds light on why cable is now drastically more expensive&putting increasing financial pressure on families for no good reason. #WTFee https://t.co/yU35wF01To https://t.co/ZJsGMZ2mC9 — PolitiTweet.org

Yet another hire at JUUL reinforces their status as Big Tobacco 2.0. JUUL’s true pursuit is to rake in the bucks by hooking a new generation on nicotine—FDA must pull all flavored products & end nefarious advertising. No more delays. https://t.co/HjwhlWMeTF — PolitiTweet.org

We must not let Pompeo get away with bullying State Department officials not to comply with Congress' Constitutional oversight function. His actions are unacceptable & a conflict of interest. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Pompeo's concealment & resistance speaks volumes. His admission makes him a fact witness to the impeachment investigation. Congress must be unyielding in insisting on Constitutional compliance. https://t.co/tJDYkoJZ1E — PolitiTweet.org

Vintage planes must be properly maintained & flown— & the NTSB must tell us whether this tragedy could have been prevented. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
The NTSB should be on the scene as soon as possible, with assistance from other agencies like the FAA. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Our hearts go out to the loved ones of the victims. They & the public deserve to know the facts & causes of this tragic crash. I’m calling for an immediate National Transportation Safety Board investigation so we can get to the bottom of what happened & prevent future tragedies. — PolitiTweet.org

Was it incompetence or criminality? This new searing report seemingly shows some of both—ineptly or willfully & deceptively shortchanging safety to save money & time. This failure cost lives & cries out for accountability. https://t.co/Qhzugmvff2 — PolitiTweet.org

A year has passed since the brutal, monstrous dismembering of Jamal Khashoggi. The Trump admin has let MBS get away w/murder by not holding the Crown Prince culpable for this killing & cover-up. We must not stand idly by as journalistic truth is silenced. https://t.co/ivcF6qJFG7 — PolitiTweet.org

Uber/Lyft have stated they ‘do not tolerate harassment or violence’ on their platform, but if they aren’t taking reports of harassment & violence seriously, this is difficult to believe. I’ve written to these companies demanding they must do more to ensure rides are in fact safe. https://t.co/5CnoBHhinn — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Drivers with credible allegations of sexual assault should be kicked off the app & when companies get complaints, law enforcement must be notified immediately. Uber & Lyft should not be telling employees to dissuade victims from notifying the authorities—this is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
Uber’s new safety features are a meager start. They do nothing to address the fundamental problems of ensuring drivers pass rigorous background checks & preventing predatory drivers from jumping from one app to another. — PolitiTweet.org

Besides comfort, the shrinking size of seats create serious safety concerns. FAA's test of emergency evacuations must use volunteers who represent a wide range of passengers. Anything less will produce data that fails to fully protect the traveling public. https://t.co/ja1ste1f60 — PolitiTweet.org

Chairman Pai has needlessly & recklessly twisted the FCC’s authority into an on-off switch that can be toggled based on who is in power, creating uncertainty for consumers & companies alike. — PolitiTweet.org
Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal
The court’s remand of Chairman Pai’s disastrous order to repeal net neutrality & preempt states demonstrates the FCC actions were based on shaky pretense & in violation of its mandate. — PolitiTweet.org
