Our allies face an increasingly desperate situation&our work remains unfinished. More must be done to ensure these Afghans have a future of safety&stability. The Administration must expand Operation Allies Welcome&the Senate must pass the bipartisan Afghan Adjustment Act. 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

Many were saved by these efforts&the evacuation was the largest in history, but many more remain left behind. As long as our allies&their families remain in Afghanistan, or in danger elsewhere, the US has a moral obligation to continue its evacuation&resettlement efforts. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

Without internet connectivity—high speed, low cost resilient internet—students can’t learn, businesses can’t reach suppliers & customers, & telehealth patients can’t be treated. The federal government is putting money where it’s mouth is with major investments. — PolitiTweet.org

The pandemic was a teaching moment about the necessity of affordable, reliable, fast internet—which now 10,000 more CT households will have with $41 million in federal funds. More must be done to close the digital divide & homework gap, because thousands remain unconnected. https://t.co/PfPWr95LU1 — PolitiTweet.org

Ukrainian flag raising in Bridgeport was a proud, determined gathering of community, clergy, & others marking 31 years of independence with unyielding dedication to sustain it.

A staggeringly severe drought poses an existential threat to farms like Hannah’s.
