Legislative Updates for 1.8

January 8, 2025
Today I was joined by my daughters at the state Capitol to be sworn to serve my fourth term representing the 140th District. And even though it was the fourth time, it never gets old.

I'm grateful and humbled to represent the residents of South Norwalk and look forward to a productive legislative session.

I always encourage residents of the 140th District to contact me about their questions, comments and concerns. In addition, I've included some resources below to help you follow along with the legislative process and to stay informed.
 
Stay Informed
My colleagues and I will tackle several important issues over the next five months. It's easier than ever to follow along and get involved. There are several resources you can utilize that will help you 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. 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.
