I had a great time at John Paterson Elementary School in Newington! We had a simulated lesson where students "try out" passing a bill into a law.

We passed important new laws last session to make sure our kids get the best education possible.

In this series of videos, I talk about the 2020 census and the importance of participating and making sure to be counted.

The Legislative Internship Program is now accepting applications for Spring 2020! Application deadline is November 1st.

Children are returning back to school, however in these final days of summer many of them are still hungry and could use your help.

A recent study showing Connecticut student’s having the highest student loan debt in the U.S. - I am pleased that major accomplishments that make higher education more accessible and affordable last session will help to address this issue.

Summer is coming to a close and kids will soon be heading back to school. To help working families prepare – and save – Connecticut offers its annual Sales Tax Free Week. From Sunday, August 18 through Saturday, August 24, you can save on clothing and footwear - and send your kids back to school in style! 

We had an excellent Youth Forum at the Lucy Robbins Welles Library! Thanks to all the young participants and colleagues that participated to make this a successful event.
