After months of negotiation and hearing input from residents across our state, I am happy to pass along great news. I am poised to vote early next week on a state budget that provides historic tax relief for parents, retirees, workers, and property owners.

The budget proposal we unveiled Wednesday offers Connecticut tax payers like you and your neighbors $600 million in tax cuts. $600 MILLION!

Our budget plan CUTS YOUR TAXES by:

Today, in the House, we passed a historic bipartisan bill aimed at addressing the immediate, intermediate and long-term needs of the children's mental and behavioral health system in Connecticut, a priority during the 2022 legislative session.

I want to cut your taxes. That is my main goal this year.
 
Connecticut families continue to be impacted by historic inflation, affecting nearly every aspect of daily life. My colleagues and I remain committed to finding ways to put money back into your pockets.
 
In April, we suspended the state's 25-cent gas tax and offered free bus rides on CT public transit through June, while also establishing an additional sales tax-free week for shoe and clothing items under $100.
 

Thank you to everyone who attended the Children's Mental Health Discussion on Monday at ECHN Manchester Memorial Hospital, whether it was in-person or virtually on Zoom and Facebook Live.

I applaud Monday's approval by the State Properties Review Board (SPRB) that allows the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CT DOT) to purchase a portion of a freight rail line in Manchester, which will create an affordable and advantageous way to fix the dangerous intersection at Oakland and Woodbridge Streets.
 

The deadline to file your federal and state taxes is April 18, which will be here before you know it!

Funding for $3 million in improvements to Center Springs Park is on the State Bond Commission meeting agenda, which is "huge" news for Manchester.
 
The COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced the importance of outdoor spaces, and that is why I fought hard for this funding, which is also an investment in Manchester. I am truly appreciative of Governor Lamont, Speaker Ritter, Majority Leader Rojas and commission members for understanding the value of this project for our town's residents.
