An atrocious failure. Yet again, DOJ betrays survivors. This cannot continue to happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the officers for the stirring, harrowing testimony & for your incredible commitment to keep our Capitol & democracy safe. — PolitiTweet.org

On January 6th America was attacked. Our democracy demands answers, accountability, & a dogged pursuit of the truth. — PolitiTweet.org

From funding for Capitol Police to reimbursing NatGuard to strengthening the Special Immigrant Visa Program for our Afghan allies, this security supplemental addresses critical funding gaps. A vote should expeditiously be brought on the floor. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Mike Enzi was a true statesman, valued colleague, & dedicated public servant who tirelessly worked on behalf of the people of Wyoming. My thoughts are with his loved ones & family during this deeply difficult time. — PolitiTweet.org

Semantics aside, Iraq still needs US support to counter our common enemy: Iran & its proxies. We must not be complacent. More work remains to train & assist our Iraqi partners to counter terrorism in the region. https://t.co/SE0DUD23ER — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

The Sackler family wants to deny victims justice by being given a lifetime legal shield that is absolutely unjust. @SenWarren & my bill to close an unfair, unacceptable loophole in bankruptcy code would remove one of the barriers preventing them from being held accountable. https://t.co/RVOgs75kTT — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

The SVOG program is a lifeline for wonderful cultural & artistic institutions that are essential to our quality of life, economy, & education. Fantastic to be at @KPMuseum today to see & support a place where kids’ dreams are nurtured & given life. https://t.co/KAGnwY16CR — PolitiTweet.org

The federal court order is badly mistaken & dangerous to health. The CDC should seek to reverse it, or to revise the rules & retain protections. Unsafe cruises are super spreaders waiting to happen. https://t.co/tuqPCdhaOT — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

I am demanding additional information from the banks & considering seeking federal & state regulatory action.  Bank mergers already have taken a toll on jobs & competition in CT & nationwide. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

These reported massive layoffs dramatically threaten the livelihoods of thousands of CT families & directly contradict statements made by the banks when announcing the merger. I am deeply alarmed. https://t.co/EAgmGTYiNY — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

I joined @ChrisMurphyCT & @rosadelauro at @newhavenymca to spread the word about the #ChildTaxCredit. These payments will boost family incomes & lift millions of kids out of poverty. I’ll keep fighting for a tax code that helps CT families build stable, secure financial futures. https://t.co/HxOM1LFTNl — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

#Olympic & #Paralympic athletes represent the best of the best of our state & country. I’m incredibly proud of all from CT who will be representing us on the world stage. I can’t wait to cheer for our athletes & all of @TeamUSA during these games. — PolitiTweet.org

–Investing in subs/helicopters/aircraft(all built right here in CT) –Overhauling the armed forces' handling of sexual assault –Responding to PFAS chemical exposure –Preventing crimes w/stolen military weapons All critical #FY22NDAA provisions that Congress should pass w/o delay. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Congress was told the FBI was conducting a real, “by the book” investigation, but in fact they did effectively nothing. A deep, disturbing disservice to survivors/witnesses & our nomination process. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Not 1, not 2, but 4,500 tips about Kavanaugh were received & not rigorously reviewed. The Trump WH—not law enforcement—decided how to handle the tips. That’s politics—not an investigation. This fake, flubbed FBI “tip line” was an abject failure & an incredible injustice. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Proud to stand with President Biden today as he signed the #VOCAFix to Sustain the Crime Victims Fund Act, which I strongly supported & helped to pass. It will mean millions of dollars to bolster resources for crime survivors & victims in CT & across the country. https://t.co/IJ9rHv335L — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Strike forces cracking down on straw purchases are a welcome, long overdue initiative—but alone are no substitute for significantly more resources & new laws. Both require Congress to act—now. https://t.co/nSEQR3vR4b — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Snooping phones, data harvesting, selling private info—the ecosystem of privacy invasions has left us defenseless. All the more reason to double down on strong federal privacy protections to stop these intrusions. https://t.co/LspjQQ4lmb — PolitiTweet.org

Every parent deserves quality care, a safe delivery, & a healthy future for their families. We must continue to break down maternal health disparities so all parents can access the critical support & medical expertise they need. #BumpDay https://t.co/0hcqzwWiFg — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

There is no time to waste. We must stand up to this attack on our democracy & pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. https://t.co/iLNhojfYCK — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Without child care, parents are unable to start a small business, rejoin the workforce, or get the skills they need for a promotion. Fortifying child care infrastructure is absolutely critical to rebuilding a thriving economy that works for everyone. #InvestInChildCare — PolitiTweet.org

The road to recovery for the tens of thousands of restaurants devastated by the pandemic is still a long one. We can’t leave our small businesses & their employees behind. Congress must act now to replenish the Restaurant Revitalization Fund. https://t.co/OeKhXwzEAr — PolitiTweet.org
