Voter intimidation in CT & around America has been blocked by this brave federal court ruling—but only temporarily. Trump’s vote suppression campaign is in full swing—with arrayed tactics—requiring a turnout too big to rig. apnews.com/article/trum...
Congratulations to Quinnipiac University School of Computing & Engineering on your 10th anniversary—a special milestone. Your students are our future.
A powerful program at the She Leads Justice Constance Baker Motley Award Luncheon. An audience of brave justice advocates!
This bombshell verdict vindicates our cry for justice after disclosure of Facebook & Cambridge Analytics blatant violations of privacy in 2018. Our hearings showed devastating abuses, now resulting in powerful remedies. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/21/t...
After $330 million privately raised, Trump’s ballroom boondoggle certainly seems like a crooked pay-to-play scheme replete with conflicts of interest & corruption. Americans deserve, & I’m demanding, answers from every donor. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...
Witkoff’s pathetic fawning over this KGB thug betrays American values & security. He should cite Putin’s humanitarian greatness to the prisoners he’s tortured & killed, the children he’s kidnapped, the Ukrainians whose country he’s bombing w/ bloodlust 1/ thehill.com/homenews/adm...
The nature of warfare is changing—largely due to Ukraine's incredible drone innovation. I saw firsthand Sikorsky’s cutting edge unmanned aerial technology in flying a helicopter equipped with it. An inspiring visit!
Without vital air defense interceptors, innocent Ukrainian civilians will suffer spiraling death & destruction from Putin’s bombing. Hegseth & Trump bear blame for their blood. Their complicity & cruelty stain America’s moral standing & national security. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Proud to attend American Dream Awards in Danbury celebrating immigrants & their contributions to the greatest country in the world—America is a nation of immigrants. Thank you to the Bacelar-Palmares family!
THREAD: Joined Senator Tillis today to host an update from President Zelenskyy with bipartisan colleagues—hearing from him highly alarmingly that intelligence sharing & Starshield access are still partially degraded. 1/
Groundbreaking for the monument tribute to the USS Groton, honoring all who designed, built, maintained, & sailed this historic sub.
Republicans must join us in fighting Trump’s abject betrayal of trust & our national security, or they will be complicit in Putin’s slaughter. Inaction is unacceptable. It is a moral moment. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/15/b...
Capacity crowd at Norwalk NAACP Freedom Fund Dinner— bringing together community leaders, public officials, civil rights advocates, & more showing commitment to equity & empowerment.
Ridgebury Farm enriches & expands so many lives with its magnificent programs & people. Proud to attend its annual event.
Interview at Cable 5 TV in Litchfield was enlightening & entertaining—a great resource.
Immigrant Heritage Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony honored extraordinary individuals who came & contributed to our great country. Greatest nation in history—a nation of immigrants.
Visiting the Kids Play Children’s Museum in Torrington— a wonderful hands-on learning experience with fun & creativity for all ages.
Donald Trump confirms again that he stands on the side of a bloodthirsty thug & the enablers of Russia’s war machine & against the majority of Americans, their representatives in both houses of Congress, & our European allies. 1/

Great visit with the CT State Building Trades Council at their annual convention—representing the lifeblood of our economy. Grateful for the critical work you do, creating training & readiness programs crucial to workforce development & advocating for workers across the state.
