I am proud to announce that I had a perfect voting record during the 2026 legislative session. Voting is one of the most crucial parts of the legislative process, and I wanted to ensure that the voices of the 143rd district were heard on every bill that was introduced on the House Floor.

I am proud to share that I received a score of 92.5 on the Connecticut Education Association's (CEA) 2026 legislative report card. Every year, CEA calculates a score for every legislator in the General Assembly based on their support of legislation that supports teachers and public education.

Tomorrow is Independence Day. The 4th of July is an opportunity to celebrate our nation and our collective work toward a more perfect union. Especially as we celebrate our 250th year, we are shaped by the dreams our ancestors brought to this wonderful land. Let’s keep moving forward until everyone shares in the promise of liberty and justice.

As a reminder, Norwalk Public Schools will participate in the federally funded Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). Starting July 6, children 18 years old and under will be able to pick up nutritious meals free of charge.

Today is Juneteenth, a holiday that marks the end of slavery in the United States and celebrates the resilience and contributions of the Black community. Let's continue to strive for equality, justice, and freedom for all.
