If you cannot make it to this event, you can find programs and resources for veterans on the DVA website.
Connecticut's veterans and active military personnel deserve our support and appreciation. From guaranteeing in-state tuition for CT veterans to creating a new local-option property tax exemption, I was proud to have voted in favor of laws that will benefit this community.
Thank you to all those who have served and continue to serve.
