Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT)

“In my home state of Connecticut, our economy is powered by great people and great ideas – by a highly-skilled, high-tech and nimble workforce with the ability to adapt to the rapidly changing world. Investments to promote scientific innovation and technological literacy have made all the difference in allowing Connecticut to position itself as a leader in the future global economy, and we must continue to make such investments in order to accelerate economic expansion both there and in the rest of the nation.”
