After just finishing a briefing with the Fed, FDIC, Treasury & White House, I’m reassured their strong, prompt action will help avert further instability. The goal is to make depositors, banks, & others aware that fear driven withdrawals are unnecessary & unhelpful. — PolitiTweet.org

This recall is deadly serious—eye drops causing infections, blindness, & even death. After cases in CT & nationwide—Artificial Tears & other Ezricare products have been recalled because of bacteria contamination. Check medicine cabinets, & discard.https://t.co/0E2j7uusav — PolitiTweet.org

Nobody makes submarines like EB’s world class workforce. No Navy has skills on Virginia Attack Class submarines like our sailors. The Aussies & Brits can learn from them, & we’ll learn from our great sea power allies. Strength in unity. — PolitiTweet.org

American shipbuilders & sailors will be critical to making this new undersea warfare alliance work—to construct & run the Virginia Class subs initially while providing skills & training to our indispensable allies. https://t.co/c9Box7fBBU — PolitiTweet.org

Moving is a hassle but can be made a nightmare when moving companies hold hostage people’s possessions until they pay additional fees. The number of these scams is skyrocketing&enforcement hasn’t kept pace. I’m asking DOT to take strong action to penalize this fraudulent conduct. https://t.co/KXKjW9f9oL — PolitiTweet.org

Wonderful to be in Guilford today to announce this important $500,000 in funding for the Guilford Harbor project. Dredging of the area is absolutely necessary to maintain usability of Guilford’s waterways—increasing its recreational potential & spurring economic growth. https://t.co/vYmYgwEIwO — PolitiTweet.org

One wrong move is all it takes to cause serious, sometimes fatal, injury on the roads. Glad $500,000 in federal funding is going to help reverse the tragic trend of wrong-way crashes—making our roads safer for all drivers. https://t.co/0nwaqpequ1 — PolitiTweet.org

Section 230 was designed to promote a safer internet, but right now it’s doing the opposite. My Subcommittee’s hearing this week made clear there is an emerging, bipartisan consensus to reform this long outdated shield. https://t.co/XD905wvDYd — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter has allegedly misused sensitive private data for advertising—recklessly leaving it open to foreign espionage & violating its consent decree. No matter who owns Twitter, the @FTC has an obligation to investigate breaches & vigorously enforce the law.https://t.co/cX4ZzN9Gy6 — PolitiTweet.org

Skill training is a matter of national security. It’s essential to our national economic & societal health—but, even more, our national defense. That’s why I successfully urged funding in our NDAA for apprenticeship programs at EB in Groton. Only a start toward what’s needed. — PolitiTweet.org

To put American defense manufacturing on proper pace, the key is training skilled workers. Talk to any defense contractor or supplier—those who make artillery, ammunition, air defense systems, stingers, javelins, & all the other vital arms. They’re desperate for skilled workers. — PolitiTweet.org

America’s defense manufacturing capacity needs to be expanded—on a wartime footing—to ensure America's security requirements that include assistance to Ukraine & other allies, not peacetime pace. It’s called investment. https://t.co/eMsmUMiIoG — PolitiTweet.org

The talents of our Groton workforce are truly world-class. Australia is smart to purchase US submarines & the Navy must continue to support this industrial base as it builds two VA-class boats a year. https://t.co/k8PYoQbGnF — PolitiTweet.org

The #WomensHealthProtectionAct would reverse the death sentence handed down to American women when SCOTUS overturned 50 years of precedent in Roe. This issue is about more than health care; it is about women’s rights, individual rights, & human rights. https://t.co/BiSmO4VXIE — PolitiTweet.org

Training of pilots, providing the F-16s—more than just a couple—is absolutely urgent, right now. The fight hangs in the balance, for us as well as Ukraine. I’ve seen Ukrainian soldiers’ can do spirit. No question: They can do it, if they have the arms. https://t.co/8JTd91JZkV — PolitiTweet.org

Caving to these right wing AGs’ threats is a deeply damaging, destructive precedent. During this moment of crisis for reproductive health care, providers have a moral imperative to ensure those who need access to care continue to receive it. — PolitiTweet.org

When bullied by Republican state AGs, Walgreens is willing to sacrifice women’s access to care. Patients nationwide have a right to the medication they need. I am writing to Walgreens demanding they reverse this craven, cowardly surrender. https://t.co/saKHxf9zqX — PolitiTweet.org
