Juul is using every tool in Big Tobacco’s playbook to hook another generation on its dangerous products. The FDA must expeditiously take action to remove these addictive, youth-focused devices from store shelves. https://t.co/6xVVLuw0y1 — PolitiTweet.org

Republican holds on Biden's nominees for key State Department positions must be lifted. All are supremely well qualified & will pass with overwhelming bipartisan support—this most recent Republican obstructionism must stop. https://t.co/p0o8urWaKG — PolitiTweet.org

#EidMubarak. Wishing everyone celebrating in CT & across the country a joyous & happy Eid al-Adha. — PolitiTweet.org

Supporting survivors shouldn't be controversial. The bipartisan #VOCAFix to Sustain the Crime Victims Fund Act would stabilize this depleted fund & bolster resources for survivors of domestic abuse, violence, & crime. All essential for providing survivors w/life-saving services. — PolitiTweet.org

As FDA’s credibility crumbles in the Aduhelm morass, claims of compromised decisions & too cozy dealings with Biogen demand that IG investigations be made public—both completed & ongoing. Alzheimer’s is a brutally cruel disease—patients deserve treatment & truth. — PolitiTweet.org

Through shared experience, peer counselors form meaningful relationships w/veterans, aiding them as they transition to civilian life. I’m proud to introduce the Veteran Peer Specialist Act, which will expand this program & connect vets to life-saving mental health care & support. https://t.co/6TxNHanlyR — PolitiTweet.org

Christi & Tyler have shown courage in the face of a tremendous loss. Their son is the inspiration for #TristansLaw that will incentivize states to mandate warning lights, signals & crossing arms on ice cream trucks. This common sense measure can save lives.https://t.co/3UKE3nKPsM — PolitiTweet.org

As the Senate’s Armed Services Committee begins marking up the national defense budget, cyber security ought to be high on the agenda. Naming & shaming China for the recent Microsoft attack is no substitute for action to deter & protect against such war-like acts. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Waving a fist inside a heavily padded glove will not deter ruthless & relentless continuing cyber-attacks by China, Russia & others. Attributing blame is a good step, but only if followed by action that makes attackers pay a real price, proportionate to their destructive impact. — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s all scream for ice cream. Happy #NationalIceCreamDay! https://t.co/MimSS0jz7x — PolitiTweet.org

Proudly marching today in Bridgeport to demand democratic & economic reform for the people of Cuba. Americans should stand with them in their fight for core freedoms—right to free speech, assembly, & representation. We denounce the Cuban government’s oppression & violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Hurricane Jayne’s Ice Cream Fundraiser—started by Jayne Whitman—buys bicycles for children who can’t afford them. She’s amazing. So are her family & friends. The ice cream is cold, but their work is heartwarming. — PolitiTweet.org

Nothing like Lime Rock—its storied track, beautiful layout, & legendary history of cars & stars. Proud to again visit a CT gem. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Terrific celebrations, lots of families & fans at Lime Rock from all over the country. A magnificent draw & destination for our great state. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

What a thrill—serving as Grand Marshal & starting the IMSA Grand Prix at Lime Rock. Drivers, Start Your Engines. https://t.co/lfJN8Vgxz4 — PolitiTweet.org

Patriotic fife & drum corps in Deep River did us proud today. Nothing like being back—magnificent spirit, celebrations, & music. Honored to join. Thanks to all. — PolitiTweet.org

A year ago today we said goodbye to a towering leader. Rep. John Lewis was the epitome of conscience, courage, & caring—teaching us to make #GoodTrouble & fight for what we believe in. We must continue to keep his legacy alive & pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Underserved communities are often under protected from scams because consumer protection enforcers lack resources. Congress needs to provide additional FTC funding & staff. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Yesterday’s announcement of a partnership between the FTC & state organizations to prevent vulnerable & low-income residents from being preyed on by fraud is incredibly important. https://t.co/fxG4Q4JdVN — PolitiTweet.org

Young Dreamers have waited. They’ve hoped—& followed all the rules. Now an imperious, ideologically driven judge imperils their lives & futures. Congress can act—& must—to help them. https://t.co/wFkffRcQSK — PolitiTweet.org

Come down to @RiverfrontRecap in Hartford Friday & Saturday for great food & more importantly a COVID vaccine. It is so important that everyone get vaccinated. https://t.co/sxAd988wrp — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

Thank you Jessica Howard for your tremendous courage & conviction. Your bravery & determination to speak truth to power is deeply inspiring. Sen. @JerryMoran & I will continue to work tirelessly to ensure this type of abuse never happens again. https://t.co/1SRZdmnQ34 — PolitiTweet.org

Director Wray must answer to the Judiciary Committee & the American people for the findings of this report, immediately terminate the agent involved, & explain in detail what steps are being taken to guarantee this never happens again. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

The FBI’s gross mishandling of the reports of Nasser’s abuse led to more athletes suffering unimaginable pain. There must be accountability for this chilling failure to properly investigate—& false statements potentially intended to cover-up that failure. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

The right to vote is not & it should never be a partisan endeavor. My deepest hope is that we can renew a bipartisan commitment to protect this fundamental right. There is no time to waste. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

We now face a tsunami of voter suppression bills crashing on this nation. Yesterday’s voting rights hearing was a call to action to protect our democracy & live up to America’s founding ideals. We cannot let these attacks stand. https://t.co/Yk2OihQGjy — PolitiTweet.org

The FDA has a moral & legal obligation to ensure that consumers have transparent, truthful information about their sunscreen & companies need to ensure the safety of their products. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal

J&J is rightly recalling these potentially cancerous aerosol sunscreens. Sunscreen offers essential protection from harmful UV rays, but remains largely unregulated—putting consumers at risk of toxic chemicals. https://t.co/yVu8OeSIWV — PolitiTweet.org

No time to waste in pressing forward with President Biden’s plan to preserve the Northeast Canyons & Seamounts. This marine treasure remains at risk. — PolitiTweet.org
