Aquarion is seeking a major rate increase, but many Plainville residents feel they’ve already been paying more all along—through bottled water, filtration systems, and ongoing concerns about water quality.

Join me TONIGHT, June 22 at 6:30pm at the Plainville Public Library (56 East Main St.) to learn how to:

Participate in the PURA rate increase hearing
Submit testimony for the official record
File complaints with the appropriate agencies
Make sure your concerns are heard

Friday is Juneteenth, a day of reflection, celebration, and progress.

As we commemorate the end of slavery in the United States and celebrate the resilience and contributions of the Black community, let's continue to strive for equality, justice, and freedom for all.

Time is running out to sign up for Access Health CT's health insurance plan with Temporary Premium Assistance!

The Temporary Premium Assistance program was created to help customers who lost all financial assistance when the federal enhanced Premium Tax Credits expired late last year.

The program has provided over $1.6 million in savings for 10,580 Connecticut residents so far.

The Special Enrollment Period for the event will end Tuesday, June 30, and I hope you'll consider applying!

I was so proud to see an additional investment of approximately $320 million into Connecticut’s Early Childhood Education Endowment.

Established in 2025 through Public Act 25-93, the endowment serves as a permanent funding source dedicated to strengthening Connecticut’s early childhood education system. This new investment, combined with last year’s initial $300 million commitment, positions Connecticut as a national leader in creating sustainable, long-term solutions that support children, families, educators, and providers.

A reminder to please join me and the rest of the Farmington delegation for a post-session legislative forum tonight from 6-7:30pm at the Farmington Senior Center (321 New Britain Ave., Unionville).

We will talk about all of the great work we accomplished this session, our priorities moving forward, and most important, the issues that matter most to you. I look forward to seeing you there!

Rain doesn’t stop Plainville when it comes to honoring Memorial Day. That’s the spirit of our town, and it was so nice to see the community come together despite the weather. Thank you to the Memorial Day Parade Committee for all the hard work organizing such a meaningful event.

The tribute to fallen firefighter Ray Moreau and the wreath laying ceremony were especially beautiful. The students did an amazing job with their essays, and it was great to see all of the youth organizations come out and participate.
