I had the great opportunity to visit UConn Avery Point with State Representative Aundré Bumgardner this week to talk with and hear from the UConn Board of Trustees members, senior leadership and campus leaders. They highlighting some of the exciting things happening at Avery Point along with the great things going on with academics and research.

I was thrilled to see New London receive millions in funding from the State Bonding Commission today.

The funding approved today will have incredible long-term benefits for our town, enhancing our children’s schools, attracting more residents and tourists alike with great new attractions like the Lyman Allyn Park, adding funds for projects under development, and so much more.

I had the great opportunity to attend the Pre - Memorial Day Candlelight Vigil. This was such a memorable event in which they honored men and women who lost their lives fighting for our country and to support our veterans and those currently on active & reserve duty. What a great honor to be present and hear from many individuals about loved ones that made and make a huge impact in our community.

Monday is Memorial Day, a day to remember and honor all whose bravery and service cost them the ultimate sacrifice. While this long weekend presents the opportunity to spend time with our loved ones, it is also a time to pause and reflect on those who gave their lives to protect and preserve our great nation and democracy. I also make sure to take the time to remind myself to live a life that is meaningful and worthy of the sacrifices so many have made. I hope you all have a safe and meaningful Memorial Day.

This week we had the great opportunity to tour the first U.S Utility Scale Offshore Windfarm. This project The South Fork Wind Project has and will benefit New London, CT, the local economy in several different ways.

And that's a wrap! The Connecticut General Assembly finished our 2024 legislative session at midnight on Wednesday, capping a busy three months of fighting for the people of Connecticut!

I'm proud to say we passed a bipartisan spending stabilization plan that will ensure our two-year state budget's historic tax cuts are protected, and we invest in the priorities that matter to you.

This week we passed one of the greatest bills I've voted for. A 100% Tax Exemption Bill for 100% disabled rating veterans in Connecticut. This bill is beneficial because it acknowledges and appreciates the sacrifices these veterans have made for their country.
