In the midst of a youth nicotine epidemic, FDA’s approval of Big Tobacco’s newest product is deeply concerning. If history is any guide, this device will be advertised in sleek ways designed to tempt youth & hook them on this addictive product. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a tremendous victory & vindication of a commonsense reading of the Constitution. In an extraordinarily well-reasoned opinion, the court soundly rejected the President’s absurd argument that he is above the law. The next step should be discovery & full disclosure. — PolitiTweet.org

The sooner the FEC & FBI know a foreign adversary is attempting to interfere in an election, the sooner they can respond & guard against further attacks. Protecting the integrity of our elections—the pillar of our democracy—should be a bipartisan priority. — PolitiTweet.org

A duty to report foreign sabotage of our democracy is a matter of patriotism—but needs to be a legal duty too. Under @RepSwalwell & I’s Duty to Report Act, if a foreign adversary offers a candidate illegal assistance, the 1st call must be to FEC/FBI, not criminal co-conspirators. — PolitiTweet.org

Mae Schmidle epitomized the best of CT politics: Public service above partisanship, friendship not fighting, good humor above all. One of a kind, I was proud to count her as a friend — & my sympathies go to her family, including Lt Gen Robert Schmidle, Jr., USMC (Ret.). — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook made $15B in the last three months – $3B for violating an FTC order & a decade of privacy violations would be a mere slap on the wrist. FTC must pursue strong structural remedies & impose managerial accountability. Facebook won’t listen otherwise. https://t.co/MLnrzvujg5 — PolitiTweet.org

Facebook must be held accountable—not just by fines (a predicted $3 billion seems paltry compared to $15 billion in profits last quarter), but also far reaching reforms in management, privacy practices & culture. Money matters. Policies & people matter too.https://t.co/5JgFGPA8se — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to see retail pharmacies taking steps to curb the spread of e-cigarettes & the scourge of tobacco, but half-measures aren’t enough. It’s past time for Rite Aid to make real its commitment to “wellness” – take all tobacco products off its shelves. https://t.co/s3fzVYD44e — PolitiTweet.org

A good first step, but tobacco products are deadly—at any age—and should have no place on retail pharmacy shelves. Walgreens must go further & ban tobacco products entirely. https://t.co/DJ0yovxKL9 — PolitiTweet.org
