It’s been one year since we were all witnesses to an abhorrent attack on our democracy. Rioters armed with bats & pipes, a Confederate flag in the halls of Congress, ruthless attacks on police officers—not a week goes by where I don’t think about that dark, terrible day. — PolitiTweet.org

From protecting our troops from deadly danger to serving disabled Americans & veterans recovering from wounds of war, the life-changing service of these animals & handlers is legendary. Homage is long overdue. — PolitiTweet.org

Brave service animals & handlers have long put their lives on the line, & sometimes sacrificed them for the sake of our country. To honor their unstinting support for Americans, I was proud to introduce the bipartisan National Service Animals Memorial Act today. https://t.co/cWumVTAoy9 — PolitiTweet.org

A good first step from ATF. Practicing safe gun storage & preventing unsecured firearms from falling into the wrong hands will save countless lives. While CT has led the way, I’ll continue to push Congress to act on commonsense reform & my federal version of Ethan's Law. — PolitiTweet.org

One thing is clear from my visits to testing sites & distribution centers all across CT—we need more federal action to increase test supply. Expanded use of the Defense Production Act & other federal resources will help us in stemming this wave of the pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Everywhere I visited today & across the state, CT is deeply thankful for free tests. Along with vaccinations & other steps, tests are key to conquering COVID—safely going back to school, to work, & to normal. — PolitiTweet.org

The federal government must expand use of the Defense Production Act to manufacture more tests. The demand is undeniable & urgent. The promised 500 million is a start, but billions are needed. — PolitiTweet.org

Passengers should receive full refunds for cancelled cruises. With 90+ ships under scrutiny & the Travel Health Notice at record levels, this pause is a public health imperative. Far from fun-filled, ships become floating Petri dishes for infection at sea. — PolitiTweet.org

The CDC is rightly sounding the alarm & affirming my warnings. Now we should stop cruises & dock ships before they become sailing super spreaders. This action is necessary to protect passengers, crew, & every place ships may visit. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I visited a COVID testing site in Hartford’s North End that is used by many frontline workers—who have been indispensable during this pandemic. The federal gov’t needs to step up & provide enough tests so people don’t have to wait in line for hours. They deserve better. — PolitiTweet.org
