On Wednesday, the 50th Anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, with the fall of Saigon, the Connecticut House of Representatives unanimously passed (146-0-5) what we call the “HERO Act.”

April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month and the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) has launched a statewide distracted Driving Awareness and Enforcement Campaign to Keep Connecticut Roads Safe.

As the 2025 legislative session moves forward, momentum is building, and we will be holding more House Sessions in the coming weeks to vote on important legislation as we approach the close of business on June 4.

I applaud the Commerce Committee’s passing today of House Joint Resolution No. 9 Memorializing Congress to Amend the Jones Act to Improve Economic and Trade Relations Between The State Of Connecticut And Puerto Rico. The resolution calls upon the Congress of the United States to pass legislation to exempt Puerto Rico from the Jones Act.

Make sure to get your REAL ID! The TSA just set a deadline for federal enforcement of REAL ID requirements.

If you are a Connecticut resident who has been fired or put on unpaid administrative leave from your job with the federal government, please know we are here for you.

Affordable and accessible childcare is essential for Connecticut families and businesses to thrive. H.B. 5003, a top legislative priority for House Democrats this session, will expedite funding for families, attract and retain childcare educators, and enhance both new and existing childcare facilities.

I was proud to vote for a bill allocating $40 million in funding to special education, giving immediate support to more than 140 school districts in our state and helping to provide the highest quality education for our students. These critical resources will help ensure students receive the specialized support they need to thrive.
