Jaime Foster

Hi 57th District! As we prepare to head into Thanksgiving week, I want to express my gratitude to you for putting your trust in me as your state representative. Thank you. I'm honored to represent the 57th District.  

Remarks by Representative Foster following the announcement that she was named "Legislator of the Year" by the CT Farm Bureau on November 8.

State Representative Jaime Foster (D-Ellington, East Windsor, and Vernon) was recently honored as "Legislator of the Year" by the CT Farm Bureau.

The Veterans & Military Affairs Committee is hosting an informational hearing on Wednesday, November 8, at the Legislative Office Building in Hartford, Room 2C, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. 

Hi 57th District! I hope things are settling down post-Halloween. I saw some adorable and creative photos of kids and adults alike in their costumes.

Remember this weekend we "fall back" an hour (2 a.m. on Sunday), but if you have children or pets, you probably won't gain an hour of sleep! While cell phones and computers should automatically update, make sure you change clocks in your home - the ones that often are forgotten, like the kitchen clock, stove clock, and perhaps a clock radio. I wish all good luck this weekend and prepare for darkness before 5 p.m. At least it won't be really cold and rainy this weekend.

During this period, individuals can enroll for the first time, renew their coverage, and explore the various policy options to see which will be the most beneficial. 

I have a lot of information to share with you - from farmland grants for several farms in the 57th and a State Bond Commission approval for a local library to Halloween events & a food drive this weekend in memory of a beloved community member.

RAIN OR SHINE! The main food drive, which will benefit The Cornerstone Foundation, will be held on Oct. 21 from 12:30 to 3 p.m. at St. Bernard Church at 25 St. Bernard Terrace in Vernon. If you can’t make it on October 21, starting Oct. 10, food donation boxes will be placed at Vernon Town Hall (14 Park Place), Rockville Public Library (52 Union St., Vernon), and St. Bernard Church. The boxes will be in place until Oct. 20.
