Governor Ned Lamont presented his biennial budget proposal yesterday and as legislators our job now is to analyze it, meet with state, local officials – and especially the people of New Haven – to discuss the governor’s ideas and ultimately decide what changes have to be made so the final budget draft truly meets the state’s needs.

A good budget should reflect our values and make our state an even better place to live, work and raise a family. With that goal in mind, I urge you to speak out about any issues or concerns you may have about the budget or other legislation we will be considering over the next few months.

Your voice is important and I need to know what your thoughts are as we work on the budget. To keep you aware of what is happening at the Capitol, I will continue to send updates like this.
