My grandfather and father's stories are those of unity in patriotism and service. Whether as a Veteran or in another role, I encourage you to share your story of service so that others, especially young people, may learn from your example, similar to how I did from my grandfather and father.
During the hearing, I welcomed Southington Veteran, Ray Higgins, to testify and advocate for legislation that would extend the municipal benefits available to Veterans to those who served during the Cold War era. Mr. Higgins shared his story of service with the aim that his advocacy will inform the legislation that our committee will pursue during the upcoming legislative session. Thank you, Mr. Higgins, for your service!
