As details continue to emerge about the tragic shootings in Connecticut, it is impossible to comprehend the pain that the families of those lost are experiencing. As a mother, I know first-hand that we send our children off to school to learn, to interact, and to play, but to always come back into our arms. That did not happen for these grieving families. As we search for answers, let us pray for the loved ones of the children and adults so senselessly lost in this unspeakable tragedy.

- I'm proud that my legislation to assist veterans, The Clothe a Homeless Hero Act, passed with the bi-partisan support of my colleagues today. This legislation will require the TSA to partner with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and local charities to distribute unclaimed clothing left at airport security checkpoints to homeless and needy veterans and veterans’ families. As cold weather approaches across much of the country, this legislation will be a help for homeless veterans while we work to end homelessness for good. It is unconscionable that so many of our veterans are homeless, and we must support our returning heroes.
