Increasing the number of gun sales subject to background checks, encouraging the use of red flag laws, & promoting safe storage—President Biden’s executive action will save lives. Glad the President is doubling down on the progress made by the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

I'll be introducing legislation with @RepAdamSchiff to hold bank executives accountable—especially for the kinds of bonuses taken by leaders at Silicon Valley Bank hours before its collapse. We need to claw back these self-serving payouts & return these funds to taxpayers. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Last year CT roads were deadlier than ever. With this $200,000 grant Torrington will be able to fight back against these fatalities & improve street safety. A model & leader in safety. https://t.co/ndElxSBDOW — PolitiTweet.org

Bank CEO’s shouldn’t walk away with millions while others pay the price. Right away, we must tighten laws to protect our banking system from excessive risk & mismanagement. I voted against weakening the laws in 2018. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Bank executives responsible for this mess should be held accountable. First priority—assure stability of banking system & depositor money without taxpayer dollars. But second, right away, make sure mismanagement is investigated & pursued. https://t.co/VwBDqvBBfP — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve heard from diverse interests around CT & elsewhere about the ramifications of closing SVB & Signature Bank. I hope this action provides some real time reassurance. — PolitiTweet.org

There should be significant comfort in this robust program: backups & safeguards, above the $250,000 FDIC insurance, & a major facility supporting banks—at no (zero) cost to taxpayers & with no protections for shareholders. — PolitiTweet.org
