I hope you'll join to hear about what we passed this legislative session and to tell us your priorities! Celebrate New London this Weekend! Please join the City of New London, Connecticut on Saturday, July 12 for an epic celebration of all things New London — capped off with New England’s largest fireworks display over the Thames River, thanks Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation!  Enjoy live music on two outdoor stages and at venues across the New London Cultural District — good vibes guaranteed! Stop by our downtown restaurants for delicious, diverse cuisine or grab a bite from one of the many tasty food trucks lining the festival. Explore our Creative Village, a vibrant marketplace on State Street near Parade Plaza — a collaboration by The Annex, The Golden Owl, and the New London Arts Council. Discover unique handcrafted art, live painting, and fun interactive experiences!   Come celebrate the heart, soul, and creativity of New London! Putting Patients First The governor signed a bill into law this week that puts patients first and holds insurance companies accountable. Here’s what it does: Caps excessive premium hikes. Allows the Connecticut Insurance Department to limit rate increases for insurers that have a track record of hiking costs. Enforces mental health parity—with real consequences. Insurers must treat mental health like physical health, and those who don’t comply can face fines up to $625,000 and must publicly report how they’re doing. Ends harmful “step therapy” delays. Patients with MS, rheumatoid arthritis, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression will no longer be forced to try cheaper meds first while their condition worsens, and trial periods are also cut from 60 to 30 days. USS Delaware's Homecoming Welcome home USS DELAWARE SSN - 791 - Sweet homecoming this week. Thank you for your service.
