I am over the moon that our recess bill HB 7250 has passed the House and on to the Senate for consideration.

The House just passed HB 7156 which will help move Connecticut to be a major player in increasing its energy production and help us diversify our energy generation. I am proud to support this important legislation.

Minimum wage bill passes in House!!!

Proud and honored to celebrate my first Norwalk Day at the State Capitol with my colleagues Wednesday, I celebrated Norwalk Day at the Capitol, where many of our local businesses and community organizations came and showcased what they do and the work they’ve done. Great to welcome business owners, community leaders, city officials and everyone that joined us! #Norwalkpride

Connecticut is a leader when it comes to sensible gun safety laws. We continued our leadership on the issue by passing Ethan’s Law, legislation regulating ghost guns and legislation increasing safe storage of fire arms.

Today, on the steps of Norwalk City Hall, I joined with Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff, State Representative Chris Perone (D-Norwalk), State Representative Travis Simms (D-Norwalk), and Norwalk Federation of Teachers President Mary Yordon to highlight the full state funding for local Norwalk education in the Democratic state budget passed last week in the Appropriations Committee.

It’s #PolishDay at the Capitol! As a short term resident of Poland, I consider myself an honoree Pol. I loved my time there and loved meeting many Polish-Americans citizens in my district.

The House took action approving a resolution that would include a ballot question to amend the State Constitution to allow for an in-person early voting system. Once the resolution gets final legislative approval, the question will appear on the November 2020 ballot for voters to decide if Connecticut should implement it.
