from L to R: Senator Scott Frantz, Senator Tony Guglielmo and Senate Minority Leader Len Fasano and Senator Art Linares on Opening Day of the 2015 Legislative Session in Hartford.

Hartford, CT – Senator Tony Guglielmo (R-Stafford) Chief Deputy Minority Leader of the Senate Republican Caucus joined his colleagues in the General Assembly at the swearing in of the newly elected 2015 Legislative body.

This is Senator Guglielmo’s 12th term as a state senator representing the 35th District towns of Ashford, Chaplin, Coventry, Eastford, Ellington, Hampton, Pomfret, Stafford, Tolland, Union, Vernon, Willington and Woodstock.

Senator Guglielmo will look to sponsor bills this legislative session that focus on Veterans, Public Safety and will continue the fight to keep state spending in check.

“Our state is facing a nearly 3 billion dollar deficit in the coming years and we need to make sure the state is not spending foolishly,” said Sen. Guglielmo. “I look forward to this upcoming session just as much as the first session – when I was sworn in as a freshman legislator. This is important work and it is our responsibility to make sure the state has a future.”

The new Senate includes 36 members: 15 Republicans and 21 Democrats. The House is comprised of 151 members: 87 Democrats and 64 Republicans.
