Please join the Fairfield delegation for a town hall & legislative update on Thursday, January 9, at Sacred Heart University.

New year, new laws - effective January 1, a number of new laws will take effect in Connecticut.

Rep. Sarah Keitt (D-Fairfield, Trumbull) has been appointed Vice Chair of the Commerce Committee for the next legislative term.

Winter and colder temperatures mean rising energy costs, but there are several programs available to residents struggling to afford their heating bills.

Whether it be state assistance, protection from service shutoff, payment plans or energy efficiency improvements, there is a program that can help almost everyone.

Effective January 1, 2025, the hourly minimum wage in the state will increase from $15.69 to $16.35.

Join the Trumbull delegation for an Energy Forum at Trumbull Town Hall on December 10. The forum will allow ratepayers to understand how and why rate hikes happened, what we can expect moving forward, and what steps can be taken to lower electricity bills. Fairfield residents - please feel free to attend, as the event is open to the public.

Today I had the opportunity to speak at Advanced Radiology in Trumbull, along with Governor Ned Lamont, to recognize Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month. This cancer is hard to detect and is often diagnosed late. Pancreatic cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the country, with a five-year survival rate of less than 12%. My connection to pancreatic cancer is tied to my brother-in-law's mother, who lost his mother much too soon because of the disease. Here are my remarks.
