There is still time to register for Monday's forum on child care. This informative event will greatly benefit parents and guardians who are looking to learn more about what to expect when looking for a location for their children.

I would like to wish you and your family a happy Thanksgiving!

Reminder – I am cohosting a Town Hall Meeting on December 1. It will be held in the Weller Center at Mitchell College from 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm.

An overhaul of our country's infrastructure is long overdue. Climate change, neglect, and aging has taken its toll on our roads, bridges, and tunnels, among other items. 

On Wednesday December 1, I will co-host an in-person Town Hall meeting. I will be joined by state Representatives Nolan and de la Cruz. The meeting will take place in the Weller Center at Mitchell College from 6:30 pm -8:30 pm.

On Monday, November 29, I will host a forum on the access, quality and affordability of child care. I will be joined by State Representative Christine Goupil and Office of Early Childhood Commissioner Beth Bye.

November 2 is Election Day. Polling locations will be open from 6 am – 8 pm. Although local municipal elections do not receive as much attention as their national counterparts, they are still just as important. Elected officials at every level have an impact on your day to day life.

I would like to share some excellent fiscal news regarding Connecticut’s rainy-day fund. Our state currently has $3.1 billion saved in this fund, making Connecticut a national leader in budget reserves! The Pew Charitable Trusts found that, in 2020, Connecticut’s reserves grew the second-fastest nationally, even in the midst of a global pandemic.
