I wish all our Waterford and Montville students, teachers, faculty, staff, and parents an enthusiastic welcome back to school!

There's great news from the state Bond Commission for Waterford and Montville.

I want to thank everyone who attended our after-session town hall meeting this week at Waterford Public Library. We're sorry to have missed Sen. Marx, who was feeling under the weather. I'm glad she's feeling better.

One of my top priorities going into the legislative session this year was to help lower the cost of housing for homeowners and renters.

One of my top priorities going into the legislative session this year was to help lower the cost of housing for homeowners and renters. This priority grew out of my knocking on thousands of doors while campaigning last year.

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

The session is picking up, as we are staying later most days and passing more bills each day. You’ll see a lot of that work mentioned below. Also, it may not be substantive legislative work, but the House Democrats snapped a three-year losing streak to beat the Republicans in the annual CGA Kickball Classic. Most important, proceeds from the event went to CT Foodshare.

Last week, the House voted in favor of HB 5004: An Act Concerning the Protection of the Environment and the Development of Renewable Energy Sources and Associated Job Sectors.

There's a lot to talk about this week on the local, state and federal levels. Unfortunately, at the top of the list are more nonsensical, cruel and damaging cuts continuing to cascade from the federal government.
