If you need a Covid-19 vaccine, the FEMA Mobile Clinic will be in Meriden this weekend.

This year’s extended tax deadline, May 17th, is just over a month away. Filing your taxes is more important than ever to ensure you receive critical federal stimulus money that may be available to you.

I joined my Meriden colleagues, the Governor, Sen. Blumenthal, Congresswoman Hayes and others for a round table conversation at John Barry Elementary School to discuss ways we can utilize American Rescue Plan funds to invest in educational opportunities for children who have been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The City of Meriden just announced that Griffin Hospital will be providing 125 Johnson & Johnson vaccines to Meriden residents only today - through Friday, April 9.

Connecticut residents ages 16 and older can now begin booking a vaccine appointment.

The Renters' Rebate program opens April 1st, and runs through October 1st. This program provides rental reimbursement to elderly and disabled residents in need. These rebates can be up to $900 for married couples and $700 for individuals. The amount is based on a graduated income scale and the amount of rent and utility payments (excluding telephone) made in the prior calendar year.

One down, one to go! Props to Yale New Haven Health  for having such an efficient process for those of us who wanted to get the Covid-19 vaccine.

Today is Equal Pay Day—a day that marks the point at which it takes a woman on average to earn what her male counterpart did the year before. In 2020, a woman in Connecticut earned only $0.83 for every dollar that a white, non-Hispanic man made.
