First, I want to wish everyone a happy, safe and healthy new year. I'm looking forward to a productive 2026 representing Mansfield at the State Capitol.

As 2025 comes to a close, I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for allowing me to represent you in the Connecticut General Assembly.

As we head into the winter season, I want to be sure you have the information you need to protect your family’s health and financial well-being.

This week, the legislature convened in a special session to take up several pressing issues, most notably approving $500 million to safeguard vital services like food assistance, health care, energy support, housing, and child care against possible federal cuts.

Late last week, I sent out an email regarding the current status of SNAP. On Friday, two federal judges ruled that at least some funding from the USDA emergency fund had to be released.

I can't believe I am sending out information in this newsletter on where people can get food. But this is life under the current leadership in Washington, D.C. 

Early voting has started and ends Sunday, Nov. 2.
