June 6 marked the #DDay75thAnniversary, & this Saturday marks the 75th Anniversary of the GI Bill's signing. One of my first votes upon coming to Congress was to pass the Post-9/11 GI Bill for our Iraq & Afghanistan #vets, & I'm working to keep their benefits from being eroded. pic.twitter.com/0VM55K10fi

In May, the House passed the #BlueWater Navy Vietnam Veterans Act, a bill to correct a 17-year injustice against our Blue Water vets. Now that it's passed the Senate, the bill is ready for the POTUS's signature. We have to get this done. bit.ly/2KmvdwT

My visit to Town Farm LLC in #Ledyard offered a glimpse into all of the exciting opportunities ahead for growing our state’s #hempfarming industry. Check out @WTNH’s clip from my visit last week to meet with Dylan Williams, the state’s first officially licensed hemp farmer. pic.twitter.com/u8ru264pV3

For too long, #BlueWater vets have been denied the benefits they deserve & while the debt we owe these men for their service and for the subsequent obstruction can never be repaid, we owe it to these vets & their families to do right by them moving forward bit.ly/2ZwSBLZ

Yesterday, the Senate passed the #BlueWater Navy Vietnam Veterans Act, following our passage of the bill in the House last month. Now the bill heads to the President’s desk for signature, and if passed into law, will finally codify protections for our Blue Water vets.

Great progress made this week in our efforts to preserve & protect Plum Island from private sale, as @AppropsDems voted to include language I authored along with @RosaDeLauro & @RepLeeZeldin to prevent the island’s required sale to the highest bidder. bit.ly/2MPMMre

Some important investments in CT’s manufacturing & #aerospace industries were included in the bipartisan #FY20NDAA that @HASCDemocrats passed early this morning - 3 VA-class #submarines, more #F35's than POTUS requested, & more. Check out more of the highlights below: pic.twitter.com/lg6Hl3Vl6V

.@HASCDemocrats just passed my #fy20NDAA amendment to prevent @deptofdefense restrictions on GI Bill transferability like those due to go into effect next month. While @ActingSecDef should reconsider this decision entirely, strong support today should be clear sign to slow down. pic.twitter.com/ggoXL9zTdL

I’m proud of the #bipartisan support in the committee today, and I will continue working to try to prevent this misguided plan to scale back GI Bill transferability from going into effect next month.

Groups like the @IAVA joined in opposition to the restrictions, calling them “outrageous” and that the new changes “hurt our readiness, hurt our recruitment, hurt morale, and are bad for military families.”

I led a letter signed by 83 bipartisan members of Congress expressed serious concern that this plan sends “exactly the wrong message” and “sets a dangerous precedent for the removal of other critical benefits as members approach #military retirement.” pic.twitter.com/cb6xyuQLKy

Last year, @DeptofDefense announced a new policy to prevent service members with greater than 16 years of service from transferring their Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to eligible family members. This benefit was a key part of the Post-9/11 GI Bill I helped pass into law in 2008.

ICYMI: we had a huge victory for #WorkplaceViolence prevention yesterday when @EdLaborCmte voted on #HR1309. Listen to @RepJoeCourtney talk with John Brady @jb5591 of @AFTCT about this important step forward. As Rep. Courtney says, “Onto the House floor!” #SafeCareSafeWork twitter.com/repjoecourtney…
