The Committee on the Judiciary has broad jurisdiction covering our federal courts and judicial nominations, voting rights, gun violence prevention, antitrust law, domestic violent extremism and terrorism, criminal justice reform, and immigration. The Committee also plays a critical oversight role over the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Department of Homeland Security.

Senator Blumenthal has made defending voting rights, preventing gun violence, championing civil rights, and protecting reproductive rights top priorities.

The Committee on Armed Services is responsible for conducting oversight of the nation’s military forces, including the Department of Defense, military research and development, and a variety of other matters related to the country’s defense.

Senator Blumenthal is committed to protecting U.S. national security and providing service members and their families with the resources they need to defend our nation. He is also a proud advocate for the Connecticut defense industrial base workforce, from large prime contractors to small businesses within the supply chain.

The Special Committee on Aging is responsible for studying and overseeing programs and policies related to seniors’ financial and social wellbeing. The Committee serves as a hub for discussion of crucially important issues like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, retirement security, access to health care, fraud prevention, and caregiving.

Senator Blumenthal has long advocated on behalf of the interests of Connecticut seniors and will continue to be a champion for older Americans.
