I will do everything in my power to improve living standards for working families. I will also ensure that workers have the right to organize through collective bargaining and achieve a decent standard of living.

Disturbing #WhereAreTheChildren update. Earlier today, HHS denied me @SenBlumenthal @RepJoeCourtney the ability to visit a child separated from their family who is being housed w a non-profit in our state. The perverse secrecy of child separation should concern us all.

Where is this administration’s plan to reunify thousands of families they’ve already torn apart, with no clear prospect of restoring them?

The president has the power to appoint a czar to marshal & organize the agencies in charge of reunifying families. He should exercise that power, listen to all those marching today & clean up the mess he made w/ his slapdash family separation policy. #FamiliesBelongTogetherMarch

I’m hearing it every day when I knock doors, too. I see more Seniors than any other group getting food from the Foodshare distribution site in Avon. We must work to make sure our Seniors aren’t forgotten or overlooked. xitter.cf/johnlarsonct/status/99…
I hear it from seniors all the time: “I don’t want to be a burden.” “It's hard to make ends meet, but I can get by.” This isn’t how it should be. I've plan to expand #SocialSecurity to ensure if you’ve paid into the system throughout your career, you can’t retire into poverty

Was great to hear the backstory on the fantastic new @Infosys deal in Hartford last night from @NedLamont during the @avondems meeting. 1,000 new jobs for workers in CT and a growing technology ecosystem. Big win for our great state! #leadership
