Dear Neighbor,

On Wednesday, I was sworn in at the State Capitol on the first day of the 2025 legislative session in Hartford. I am honored to serve another term and look forward to another successful session!  
I also had the honor of introducing Danbury Mayor Roberto Alves on the House Floor. Click the link below to see my brief remarks. 
 
The Office of  Legislative Research just released their annual Major Issues Report, which is a summary of issues the General Assembly may address in the upcoming session. Click here to read the document. 

It's easier than ever to follow the action at the Capitol and get involved. There are several resources below you can utilize to stay updated on the legislative process as it unfolds in Hartford.

Here's how you can stay connected and actively participate:  

  • The Office of Legislative Research (OLR) provides nonpartisan and unbiased research to members of the General Assembly and their staff. Part of their duties include writing bill analyses, which are summaries of bills in plain language. 
  • You can view the Connecticut General Assembly's upcoming events by checking out its schedule on the CGA official website. 
  • Follow CT-N for live coverage of committee meetings, as well as House and Senate floor debates. 
  • You can register to monitor any bill's journey as it goes through the legislative process. By signing up, you can enter the bill number and receive real-time updates. Stay informed with email notifications whenever there's a change in the bill's progress.
  • Visit this website for information on how to testify on a bill at a public hearing.
If you or someone you know requires assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at the Capitol at 1-800-842-1902 or email me at Bob.Godfrey@cga.ct.gov.

Sincerely,


Bob Godfrey
