The 2024 Session Has Ended
May 9, 2024It’s a wrap! After a packed week, yesterday was the end of session. I'm proud to say we passed a bipartisan spending stabilization plan that ensures our two-year state budget's historic tax cuts are protected, respected our fiscal guardrails, and used federal ARPA money for vital needs.
Updates from the Final Stretch of Session
May 2, 2024We are heading into the final few days of the session and bills are coming before us in rapid succession. Two bills in particular I was really happy to see pass were HB 5058 and HB 5197. These bills allow Connecticut to become part of the Nurse Licensure Compact and the Social Worker Compact.
April 25th Legislative & Local Updates for the 149th District
April 25, 2024The most important part of my job is advocating for my district. Before the start of session, Representatives Arzeno, Meskers and I were made aware of an important traffic safety project along the Glenville Corridor that had been put on hold due to lack of funding.

Fighting to Protect Our Climate and Other Legislative Updates
April 11, 2024In 2023, the impact of extreme weather in Connecticut was widespread: flooding and late-season freezes that devastated crops, increased inland and coastal flooding, and record high temperatures. Preparing for and protecting our state from the effects of climate change will take a concerted effort, which is why I'm pleased to highlight another bill I co-sponsored.
Addressing Affordability of Homeownership
April 4, 2024In my conversations with constituents, I keep hearing how the high cost of housing is hurting us: first responders or teachers are unable to live in the community in which they work; businesses bypass CT because workers can’t afford to live here; grown kids move out of state or seniors leave because they can’t afford to stay.
There is Still One Day Left for Early Voting
