Dear Neighbor,

Over the weekend, the League of Women Voters of Norwalk hosted a State Legislative Forum for the Norwalk Delegation. It was great speaking with voters about the work we are doing in the legislature this session. I enjoyed engaging with constituents and appreciated all the feedback that was given.

I thank State Sen. Bob Duff and State Reps. Lucy Dathan, Tracy Marra, Dominique Johnson, and Travis Simms for their support.
 
Support for H.B 6760
Last week, I spoke with the Fairfield Business Journal about the importance of passing H.B 6760, legislation that establishes a task force to craft and enact a curriculum for students on media literacy.

Taking Action on Gun Violence
On Tuesday, the Judiciary Committee voted to approve legislation to reduce gun violence, including mass shootings, community violence, domestic violence, suicides and accidental shootings.

This week's tragedy in Nashville shows that gun violence continues to plague our country. We have also had a recent spate of gun violence on the streets of our cities here in Connecticut.

H.B 6667, An Act Addressing Gun Violence, seeks to tackle the issue in a profound and needed way since the last time we had a serious look at our statutes in the wake of Sandy Hook. 
 
Connecticut has the resolve and will to implement legislation that respects the rights of law-abiding and responsible Americans but not at the expense of public safety.

H.B 6667 contains good, commonsense public policy proposals aimed at preventing terrible tragedies. One incident of gun violence is too many, which is why I am dedicated to curtailing it and working to pass this bill.

If you have questions, or ever need any help please don't hesitate to reach out by phone, (800) 842-8267 or email, Kadeem.Roberts@cga.ct.gov. 

Sincerely,

Kadeem Roberts
