I hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving and that your preparations for the holiday season are going well. As we inch toward the new year, I am focused on the work that needs to be done in the new legislative session. One big talker, in Simsbury and at the Capitol, is electric vehicles (EVs). While a proposal to ban gas powered car sales by 2035 is on hold, my colleagues and I will be working collaboratively to address concerns raised about the switch to EV only sales, particularly about affordability, range, and grid preparedness.
This Sunday, I will hold my last community coffee hours of the year at the Coffee Spot. In the spirit of the season, if it's within your means, please bring food, household goods, or a personal hygiene donation for the Simsbury Food Pantry. We are trying to make this holiday season more special for those in need. You will find the items the food pantry needs this month below.
