"Trump & Republicans have hatched an ill-advised plan that would defund #SocialSecurity, jeopardizing the nation’s most popular program at the very time that Americans need these benefits most." I won't let that happen. #SocSec85 Read my op-ed here: https://t.co/SvUECgI8wi
According to the @USGAO thousands of Americans are dying while waiting for Social Security benefits. This is unacceptable. @SenSanders and I are working together to strengthen Social Security and fight back against Trump's latest efforts to defund it! https://t.co/40vGln28zu
Today is Primary Day in CT! If you’re voting in person be sure to wear a mask & practice social distancing. Absentee ballots can be dropped off at the ballot box outside your town hall. Mail-in ballots must be postmarked by today & received by Thursday!
If you are experiencing an outage call Eversource at 1-800-286-2000, text ‘OUT’ to 23129, or report it at https://t.co/76nNGJHqdQ. And for your safety, please stay far away from any downed wires and report them to 911.
Please be careful while out on the roads. CT has been hit hard by #Isaias. Be cautious by avoiding areas with downed trees/and wires, also be mindful in giving our @EversourceCT and our local cleanup crews enough space to work safely.
We must continue to listen to our public health officials and trust the science. Connecticut has one of the lowest rates of infections because we’re wearing masks, social distancing, and washing our hands. If we keep it up, we can avoid a resurgence. https://t.co/p0WSyYqZwo
CT’s #COVID19 rapid testing site located @CVSHealth in #Hartford will now remain open through September. This is good news for Hartford and the State as we work to contain the virus. https://t.co/R7dZjlFOrP
The House passed $1.5 trillion for America's crumbling infrastructure and to create jobs. The Senate and the President need to do their job so we can fix our roads, transit systems, schools, and so much more!
TOMORROW: is the deadline to file your federal tax return. For more information on how to file, visit https://t.co/IK6MBiTrgB
America needs bold infrastructure improvements. The House passed a $1.5 trillion to invest in our transportation, schools, and housing. The Senate must act to bring these much needed resources to our communities.
For years, Americans have called for action to rebuild America’s crumbling infrastructure. Today I am proud to vote for the #MovingForward Act to create jobs and fix our roads, schools, housing, and other vital parts of our communities.https://t.co/ilr9iyrIai

Our refugee and asylum programs demonstrate America's commitment to the vulnerable and voiceless. On #WRD2020, we celebrate refugees' resiliency and contributions to our communities and recognize that we must continue to fight on their behalf. #OurStrengthInDiversity
I will continue to listen to Black Americans and leaders in the First District as we strive to achieve the American promise of justice for all.
I've also been a long time supporter of legislation to develop a commission to study the racism and disparities that exist for Black Americans and what we can do to remedy them.
The muder of George Floyd is not a stand alone instance of police brutality. We have done too little for too long. I'm joining my colleagues in calling for immediate legislative action. I'm proud to support legislation condemning police brutality.

This is long overdue. Same-sex spouses have been denied equal access to critical Social Security benefits depending on where they lived for too long. It’s time @SSA consider these claims & provide benefits to the spouses who are legally entitled to them. https://t.co/P0oMGldq9U

The #COVID19 pandemic has had a disproportionate impact on communities of color in Connecticut and across the nation. Tomorrow’s @WaysMeansCommittee hearing will focus on how we can address these disparities. WATCH: https://t.co/JGJbf37aOj
Wearing a mask not only protects yourself, but also protects others. https://t.co/INKJoLdD8D
It was an honor to join in on a virtual party celebrating former Hartford Mayor Ann Uccello's 98th birthday! Mayor Ann is such an inspiration and has been a trailblazer to so many. https://t.co/nPK4Fut6Vb
Join me tonight starting at 7pm for a virtual town hall with leaders from all across Connecticut to discuss the latest on COVID19 relief efforts. #CTTownHall https://t.co/sRORU30Svr
America is experiencing great tragedy due to #COVID19. The federal government must step in and help our country make it through this devastating pandemic. Here are my thoughts on what we need to do next:https://t.co/0Nb9Hc31Pa
For the first time ever, the #2020Census is available online or via phone! Fill your household’s Census form safely from your home by going to https://t.co/1ce8F4lssL or dialing 844-330-2020. #ShapeYourFuture & help our communities get the vital resources and federal funds needed
The only way we can safely & responsibly open CT & our country is through testing! As a member of the White House Congressional Task Force to re-open the country I've urged the Trump Administration to increase our testing capacity. It's time they deliver. https://t.co/ntkk37weYe
Our @CTNationalGuard soldiers are vital to protecting CT residents and supporting the effort to slow the spread of #COVID19. I joined the CT delegation in urging the Trump Administration to extend federal authorization and funding for our National Guard. https://t.co/iNBqU5Gjvl
Yesterday I joined my colleagues in requesting @SBAGov provide EIDL status updates to applicants & provide Congress with processing updates. These loans are a vital lifeline to millions of small businesses during this crisis and they must be distributed properly and with urgency. https://t.co/mOyAT9JKel
Our #Frontline medical workers are our soldiers in the war against this virus and we must give them the protections they deserve. I joined my colleagues in calling on future #COVID19 relief packages to include provisions to protect #Frontline medical workers https://t.co/rRBbQmLcMV
#ICYMI: I joined @JenBNews on @FOX61’s The Real Story to talk about the latest on #COVID19 relief efforts, the importance of testing, and my role on the Congressional task force to reopen the country. https://t.co/FtxhCHztjX

PPP loans will be forgiven if all employees are kept on payroll for eight weeks and funds are used for payroll, rent, mortgage interest, or utilities. https://t.co/r0YamSZhFN
The #PayCheckProtectionProgram (PPP) passed by Congress is currently live. Businesses with less than 500 employees can apply for these loans to keep employees on their payroll and their businesses open.
It’s important to note this program is being stood up rapidly and there may be hiccups. My office will be monitoring PPP implementation closely and will continue to share the best available guidance for small businesses in the First District.
Businesses and non-profits with 100 or less employees negatively affected by the global spread of the #COVID19 epidemic can apply for CT’s Recovery Bridge Loan Program which awards one year, no-interest loans of up to $75,000. For more information visit: https://t.co/wk88yRPKNH

BREAKING: As our communities continues to face the public health threat of #COVID19, @AccessHealthCT has announced a new Special Enrollment Period for qualified uninsured Connecticut residents. This period starts Thursday March 19th.
Connecticut will be suspending evictions and foreclosures for the next 2 weeks. Thank you to @GovLamont, @AGWilliamTong and all of our state leaders for protecting Connecticut families during this critical time. https://t.co/iwKUjfxwuT
Ann Uccello became the first woman to serve as mayor of a Connecticut city when she was elected mayor of #Hartford in 1967. “Mayor Ann” as she was known was a pioneer in Connecticut politics and paved the way for so many women across the state and country. #WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/cy8QOKiQIa

We must #CountAllKids in the 2020 Census to ensure they have the resources and services they need to succeed. The @uscensusbureau recommends counting children where they live and sleep most often, even if it’s only temporary, to avoid undercounting. https://t.co/sAzIaoASDd
Exciting news for Windsor Locks! With this grant, the town will be able to build a new train station that will open the door for transit-oriented development that is critical to a vibrant and sustainable community. https://t.co/lQ8xzeAxKP
