As we mark the 3rd anniversary of US withdrawal from Afghanistan, I remain committed to honoring our promise to our at-risk Afghan allies—by bringing them out to safety & providing opportunities for permanent resettlement through the Afghan Adjustment Act.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/08…

Proud to stand with AFLCIO at their plumbers & pipe-fitters training facility. Unions help to create sustain & expand the middle class—protecting workers & creating opportunities. Congress needs to pass the PRO Act safeguarding the right to organize.

There are no words for the grief & outrage in our hearts. We mourn the loss of these brave, sweet souls—cruelly taken hostage & murdered—in spirit with their loved ones. May their memory forever be a blessing. Our hearts cry out for justice, & return of the remaining hostages.

A total thrill—starting the race at Lime Rock Park, a CT treasure! Congrats to honorees Skip Barber & Ford.

Great to drive a tractor once again in Bridgewater’s annual Tractor Parade—thanks to Bill Stuart & Sunny Meadow Farm. Always a unique community celebration!

Happy Labor Day! We celebrate today the dignity of work, & all the immense contributions made by working men & women. They deserve good pay, safe workplaces, & secure retirements. I’ll continue fighting for them.

Workers on strike at the Hyatt in Greenwich, demanding a contract with fair pay, safe conditions, & other basic protections. Proud to stand with you.

Newtown Labor Day Parade brings together this amazing community to celebrate the dignity of work & working people. A beautiful sun filled day with spirited crowds.

Deepfakes are becoming a persistent, pernicious threat to distort & deceive. Voters can expect to be inundated with calls using AI generated tech. The FCC should approve a rule requiring robocalls to disclose the use of AI & legislation must be passed to codify this safeguard.

Thank you FEMA & DEMHS for documenting the severe storm damage in CT. This work is a crucial step in our effort to unlock federal resources & aid to towns like Southbury & families like those I met with last week.

Primates are not pets or playthings. When they’re kept in isolation they can become dangerous. Our hope is that the new documentary ‘Chimp Crazy’ will help give us momentum to protect both primates & people by stopping private ownership & interstate trade of these animals.

Our kids deserve to start the school year without fearing for their lives. My heart breaks for the victims & loved ones of Apalachee High School. We must pass commonsense gun violence prevention measures like Ethan’s Law🟧 & extreme risk protection orders to keep our kids safe.
