State Budget
May 4, 2022After months of negotiation and hearing input from residents across our state, I am happy to pass along great news.

Clean Air Act
May 4, 2022Connecticut residents deserve clean air, but transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions have contributed to worsening air quality leading to higher rates of illnesses like asthma.
