My colleagues and I are ready to take on several issues during the upcoming session. If you want to follow our progress, or if you want to get involved, there are several ways to do so:

I want to wish you a Happy New Year! I look forward to serving you and the residents of Connecticut during the 2025 legislative session, which begins on January 8th. On that note, I want to point out several new laws passed during the 2024 session that will go into effect on Wednesday, January 1.

I have been appointed Deputy Majority Leader for the 2025 legislative session. I am thankful to House leadership for bestowing this honor upon me and for the kind words below from Connecticut House Majority Leader Jason Rojas.

The Transforming Children's Behavioral Health Policy and Planning Committee (TCB), of which I am one of the tri-chairs, had its regular monthly meeting on Wednesday in Hartford and it featured a "data spotlight" with updates from our mobile and urgent crisis centers as well as youth inpatient psychiatric, behavioral health emergency department and psychiatric residential treatment facility utilization.

The Town of West Hartford recently achieved the highest designation from Sustainable CT’s certifications – Gold Level.

There is good news for low and moderate-income families in Connecticut looking to buy their first home as a popular homeowner assistance program is now accepting a new round of applicants.

The Time to Own program provides forgivable loans for down payments and closing costs and has enabled individuals and families to achieve the dream of homeownership, fostering long-term financial stability and contributing to stronger communities throughout the state.

All year round, but particularly this month, together let’s bring attention to and raise awareness about the tragedy caused by breast cancer and domestic violence.

A number of new laws that were passed during the 2024 legislative session will go into effect on Tuesday, October 1.
