What a pleasure to join another Tobacco 21 champion, Fairfielder Allie Burt from the Wakeman Torch Club.

The flow of business through the legislature may be at its high water mark this week and in the coming weeks. Bills are being heard in committees and voted up or down.

I joined my colleagues to testify in favor of a bill protecting essential health insurance benefits.

Today the Bond Commission approved a grant to the Fairfield Theater Company to assist with renovations and expansion.

February 7 was the first day of the 2018 legislative session.

I hope you'll join me for a morning coffee hour on January 18.

Congratulations to Fairfield veteran Thomas Quinn on his induction into the Connecticut Veterans Hall of Fame!

I was honored to be presented with the Legislative Leadership Award by the Keep the Promise Coalition for my advocacy on mental health issues.
