Greetings Community!

We are ready and set to go for the 2025 Legislative Session! We were all sworn in on Wednesday. I want to take this moment to affirm my commitment to serving you and all of the residents of the 116th District to the best of my ability.
 
I also want to provide an update on a time-sensitive issue regarding health and dental coverage as well as resources you can use to follow our progress here at the Capitol, and how you can get involved.
 
Access Health CT Enroll Deadline is Wednesday
The Open Enrollment Period for Connecticut residents to shop, compare, and enroll in health insurance or renew their coverage is open now through Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2025. Customers who enroll now through Jan. 15, 2025, will have coverage starting Feb. 1, 2025. 

Customers may enroll in only health or dental coverage, or both. AHCT is the only place state residents can get financial help to pay for their health insurance. Nearly 90% of AHCT customers receive financial assistance to help pay for their health insurance. Some customers might qualify for the Covered CT Program. This program provides no-cost coverage for eligible residents.
Free help to sign up is available online, in person, and over the phone. For a list of enrollment fairs and to register, visit the Enrollment Events webpage on the AHCT website. Information about enrollment locations and Navigator locations are also listed. Customers can also get help from a certified broker or enrollment specialist in their community.

Go to 

AccessHealthCT.com and click "Get Help" or call 1-855-805-4325. Help is available in more than 100 languages. Customers who are deaf or hearing impaired may use TTY at 1-855-789-2428 or call a relay operator. People can also chat live with a customer service representative by clicking the “Live Chat” icon on the website.
 
The 2025 Legislative Session is Underway
My colleagues and I are ready to take on several issues during the upcoming session. If you want to follow our progress, or if you want to get involved, there are several ways to do so: 
  • 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. Click here to check out their website. 
  • 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 and House and Senate floor debates. 
  • You can register to monitor any bill's journey through the legislative process. You can enter the bill number and receive real-time updates by signing up. 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.

Together, we can ensure all voices are heard.

Happy Korean American Day
Did you know that on this day in 1903, the first Korean immigrants arrived in the United States? On Korean American Day, we honor and celebrate the contributions of the Korean American community to Connecticut and our country.
As always, if I can ever be of any help, please feel free to contact my office at (860) 240-8585 or by emailing me directly.

Sincerely,

Treneé McGee
