Kerry Wood

I'm very pleased to have worked with State Rep. Gary Turco, (D-Newington) and Sen. Matt Lesser (D-Middletown) as well as advocate Jan Kritzman of Newington in fighting for the passage of a bill that advances health care coverage for annual cancer screenings which was eventually added to language in the most recently passed biennium budget.

With the 2019 legislative session in the rear view mirror we are still busy working for our districts and residents across the state.

Last night, the Connecticut General Assembly passed the biennium budget, and it will be transmitted to Governor Lamont for his signature.

As we near the final stretch, budget negotiations are on the horizon.

A coffee hour will take place next week - Thursday at Bob’s Coffee from 8 AM – 9 AM. Please join me to discuss the legislative session and bills that will be coming up for a vote.
