I hope you can join me and the Connecticut Sun at the State Capitol on Wednesday, October 15th, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the North Lobby of the Capitol to remember and support families who have lost babies during pregnancy or infancy on Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day.

We're back from a short break here, but I've been out there - and seeing many residents of the 100th District, too.

The terrorist attacks on our nation 24 years ago this week were unprecedented. So much so that for most of us, the memory of September 11, 2001, will never go away. I am thankful for the brave men and women who responded to help their brothers and sisters in need amid the chaos.

I want to wish you all a safe and Happy Labor Day Weekend. One more long weekend for our students before they get into the groove with school.

Cross Street Church is hosting its Back 2 School Community Day event on Saturday, from noon to 3 p.m. at its location, 440 West Street in Middletown. Food, fun, resources, and more will be available!

The Women's Business Development Council (WBDC) has been helping women excel in business for years, and their grant programs have been a boost to many.

Tuesday was a big day for me professionally, but even bigger for mothers, fathers, and families.

The extreme hot weather protocol for the state ends tomorrow. Remember to take precautions and drink lots of fluids. Let's also check on our family and friends to make sure they're ok, even the furry ones, during our second heat wave of the summer.
