Updates from State Rep. Larry Butler for April 11, 2025

I was back in the Capitol chambers on Wednesday for a session to vote on several appointments. My colleagues and I have plans for additional sessions this month, with things really ramping up in May. Our work continues on such pivotal issues such as reducing the costs of energy, childcare, special education and housing.  I will provide updates to these issues, as well as others, as they come down the pike. Egg Hunt and Parade The annual Waterbury Easter Parade and Egg Hunt starts at Brookside Primary School with a parade led by the Easter Bunny and Waterbury Fire Department on Saturday, April 19 at 10:30 a.m. The parade finishes at Pilgrim Park with an egg hunt. The event is free. UConn Parade Speaking of parades, the victory parade and rally in downtown Hartford celebrating the NCAA championship win by the UConn women’s basketball team is Sunday, April 13 at 1 p.m. The parade will begin at 1 p.m. and will step off at the State Capitol building at the intersection of Trinity Street and Elm Street. From there, it will proceed north on Trinity Street, go through the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch, turn right (east) onto Jewell Street, turn left (north) onto Trumbull Street, and end at the intersection of Asylum Street and Trumbull Street. The rally will begin at around 1:30 p.m. and will be held outside of the main entrance of the XL Center on Trumbull Street, where the players, coaches, and other guests will be invited to give speeches. Congratulations Huskies! As always, if you have any comments, questions or concerns, please reach out to my office. Sincerely, Larry B.
