@Cindy76396968 @ryanfazio Difficult to overturn laws in CT; requires a supermaj. of legislature. CT passed a pro-trans bill in 2011, and Dems hold 2/3 majorities of both houses. Fazio as Gov would need to work across aisle to enact change. Would love to see conservatives protect ALL women’s rights!!

@ryanfazio Or perhaps discuss how you would invest in mental health services and support for LBGTQ population, instead of adopting a broad transphobic Fox News talking point.

[William Heitmann @WFH22]

@ryanfazio There are 2.8M people in US who identify as transgender per a UCLA Williams Inst. study. US pop is 342M (ie >1%). Is this really a statewide issue for your campaign and CT voters? Can you highlight specific proposals to invest in K-12 education, lower taxes, affordability?

@ryanfazio @ryanfazio I’m a resident of New Canaan. How do you reconcile this point of view with the recent outrage over the Weed & Elm development? 8-30g is a very real issue in this coming election. Where are the working/middle class welcome? And how will you invest in those towns ?

@FreddyLA7 If you haven’t gone too far north, try and detour towards Waco and visit the Czech Stop in West, TX! Amazing bakery run by multi generational family

@mattpelo @jcorrigangolf Based on comments, maybe the attendance figure is off. But the logic behind analysis seems reasonable? There is also gambling/tour wide sponsorships (FedEx, Aon, etc) that add to coffers. PGAT must have been historically profitable, especially in the Yiger era.

@TheShotgunStart two hot takes after Saturday: (1) should the @TheMasters competition committee be responsible for setting up all majors? They get it right every year on fun vs hard for fans and players; (2) not a political take, but could Fred Ridley make a run for president?

@KylePorterNS Doesn’t seem like a good match play when everyone can spin it close and hit 12 ft putts?

[William Heitmann @WFH22]

Hole 1 providing some nice approach shots (and has a great crowd fans up close)… but doesn’t seem like a good match play hole when both teams can spin it close #RyderCup #bethpage2025

@fried_egg_golf Homage to #12 at Augusta?

[William Heitmann @WFH22]

@JosephLaMagna @fried_egg_golf Trying to think way outside the box given the tour’s perceived resistance to rolling back ball or club tech… what if they put a cap on driver lofts? Effectively eliminating say Dr and 3W from tour player bags so driving distance came in line with course design vision? @AndyTFE

Random thought: should @kendricklamar bring @taylorswift13 on for a cameo during #SBLIX #halftimeshow to “Bad Blood”? Who would be the Philly artist be TSwift’s rival? It would be an instant you-had-to-see -it moment!!
