2023 Constituent Survey

It’s that time again - the 2023 legislative session is underway, and I would like to hear back from you! Connecticut faces many challenges and I’d like to know your views on all the various issues facing our state. I hope you will take a few minutes to complete this survey to help me better represent our district at the State Capitol.
