Last week was a busy week. It’s the first time this year the House has been in session two days. Then I had committee work, and enjoyed our interns’ mock session.

As spring brings April showers and daffodils, the General Assembly winds up our committee work for the year. Judiciary is finished, and Appropriations and Finance are voting out their proposals.

The business and busy-ness of the General Assembly continues. All committee except Judiciary (on which I sit), Appropriations, and Finance have met their deadlines for this year.

The General Assembly hit our mid-point for our regular session this week. More committees are finishing their original work for the year - Banking, Higher Education, Insurance and Real Estate, General Law, Government Oversight, and Transportation.

The legislative session is progressing quickly. The Aging, Children, Housing, and Veterans and Military Affairs Committees had their JF deadline this week. This means that the committees must report bills to the floor, wrapping up their work for the week.

If you need help with your federal and state tax returns this year, there are several free resources available to assist qualifying Connecticut residents.

I ❤️my job!

Last week was a busy one, mostly with committee activities. I admit I still get up the morning eager to get to work representing my neighbors. It is always interesting and exhilarating.

After two four-day weeks due to holidays, the blizzard closed our building this week, too. It didn’t stop my work, remotely and in person.
