It is an honor to lead the legislative business in the House on a busy session day. Voting on bills that have been discussed and vetted through the legislative process is how we show respect and commitment to the work we do as legislators.
I joined a broad group of environmental and consumer advocates at a press conference in Hartford, in support of HB 5618, a bill I am championing that would increase the handling fee for bottle redemption centers.
I joined Al Terzi, host of The Real Story on Fox CT, and Lou Birch from Citizens Campaign for the Environment, to talk about pending legislation on the returnable bottle law.
Today I joined colleagues, Save The Sound, CT Fund for Environment, advocacy groups, DEEP and DPH at a press conference highlighting World Water Day and all of the things that Connecticut is doing to ensure safe, clean drinking water and clean waterways across the state.
