2025 Constituent Survey

Washington is in chaos. I am carefully following the goings-on and continue to work with my colleagues to protect you.

Meanwhile back home, the General Assembly session is in high gear. I’m on several committees: Judiciary; Executive and Legislative Nominations; and Regulations Review. While these are my principal subjects, I strive to cover all that help you.

My first priority remains securing funds for Danbury education, roads, and housing. But, as I ask every year, I’m looking for your advice and your help. This is my annual constituent survey. It’s your opportunity to raise your voice.

What concerns you and your family the most?

Please check all that apply.

The Challenge of our Children’s Future

One of my personal priorities is ensuring children have our support. We are in a time where that future is at stake for all of us.

Here are some proposals we are considering. Which ones do you support?

Special Education is specially designed instruction, at no cost to parents to meet the unique needs of a child with a disability. Advocates are pressing for more funding, and I support these efforts.

Currently working families can claim a federal child tax credit up to $3,600 which is ending. Connecticut should enact a similar credit.

I believe we do enough for children.

No Opinion

Should we fund breakfast and lunch for all students?
