I hope you had you are well and enjoyed the long holiday weekend.

I met many constituents attending The Forestville Memorial Day Parade last weekend. It was great to see the community pay tribute to our fallen heroes.

The General Assembly has two weeks left of the legislative session, and we are busier than ever! Below is a legislative update on some bills that made it out of the House this week.

The House is in full swing, and we are in session Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday this week.

I have provided a legislative update with a summary of bills passed in the House last week and a few events I attended.

Another week of work in the legislature is complete, and we are one step closer to the end of the legislative session.

It's been a busy week for me and my colleagues in the legislature, but I wanted to catch you up on what I've been up to and share with you a legislative update.

Please join me for coffee next Wednesday, May 10, at Parkside Cafe on North Main Street. I look forward to meeting constituents to discuss legislative updates and issues that are important to you.

This is the time of year when we are in the chamber more frequently to start debating and passing new legislation. I will be sure to keep you posted on our progress!

We are more than halfway through the regular session, and this is the time of year when legislative activity picks up in the Connecticut General Assembly.

After weeks of holding public hearings, the Finance, Revenue, and Bonding Committee and Appropriations Committee approved their budget proposals (Appropriations handles the spending side and Finance handles the revenue side).
