My colleagues and I delivered on our promise to lower taxes for those who need the most help. Connecticut is a leader on tax relief for low and middle-income earners.

I have a post session wrap-up, a breakdown of the new laws taking effect on July 1, what services are available at the brand-new UConn Health Simsbury location, community events, and so much more!

Please join me and Sen. Lisa Seminara in person on Wednesday to talk about what the Connecticut General Assembly accomplished in the legislative session.

Please stop by on Saturday to meet me in person, drink some coffee, and talk about the ways we can improve our community. I will be holding a Community Coffee Event on Saturday at 9:30 a.m. at The Coffee Spot on 750 Hopmeadow Street in Simsbury.

I'm breaking down the legislation I've passed through the House, the latest on bear legislation, a coyote warning, and a special visitor I met at the Capitol.

Mental Health Awareness Month (MHAM) increases awareness about the vital role mental health plays in our overall health and well-being.

The House of Representatives approved H.B. 5004, a measure that will allow early voting in our state beginning in 2024. This legislation modernizes the state's elections and allows for more convenience to voters in the process.

After weeks of holding public hearings, the Finance, Revenue, and Bonding Committee and Appropriations Committee approved their respective budget proposals. The bill still leaves many needs unmet and many groups hoping for changes and increased spending to support their concerns.
