Hubert Delany

Last Wednesday, I was honored to be sworn in for another term as your state representative. I am always grateful for the opportunity to serve Stamford's 144th district. As this legislative session begins, I want to ensure your voice is heard and your concerns are adequately addressed. Please feel free to email me or reach out to my office directly at 860-240-8585.

I hope you are enjoying the holiday season and festive times.

From my family to yours, I want to take a moment to send my best wishes for the holiday season. May it bring you and your loved ones peace, happiness and time well spent together.

Effective January 1, 2025, the hourly minimum wage in the state will increase from $15.69 to $16.35.

A 2019 law (PA 19-4) passed by the legislature aligns Connecticut’s minimum wage to a percentage change in an economic indicator called the federal employment cost index. According to the Department of Labor the employment cost index rose 4.2% for the current fiscal year ending June 30, resulting in a 66-cent increase to the state’s minimum wage.

The state recently allocated $30 million toward much-needed infrastructure repairs and improvements to our state parks and forests.

There is good news for low and moderate-income families in Connecticut looking to buy their first home as a popular homeowner assistance program is now accepting a new round of applicants.

Election Day this year is Tuesday November 5 and for the first time in Connecticut history residents can take advantage of the state's new early voting law beginning Monday October 21.

Fall is here, and I hope you and your family are enjoying the crisp air, preparing for the holidays, and the beautiful seasonal foliage.

Autumn brings with it both change and opportunity, and I am excited to share with you the latest changes and updates from our legislative efforts this past year.

Of course Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates Hispanic culture, but it also honors the positive impact and lasting contributions made by generations of our growing Hispanic population to our country.

National Hispanic Heritage Month began as a week-long celebration in 1968 under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded to a month by President Ronald Reagan 20 years later in 1988. It currently runs from September 15th thru October 15th.
