Connecticut’s 2026 legislative session was a “short session,” beginning in January and ending in early May. But there was nothing small about what happened.
REMINDER TOMORROW!
Join us for our upcoming Post-Legislative Session Town Hall Meeting in Wolcott!
We’ll recap this year’s legislative session, discuss the issues affecting our communities, and answer your questions.
📍 Wolcott Town Hall
With State Representative Gale Mastrofrancesco
📅 Monday, June 22 | 🕡 6:30–8:00 p.m.
We look forward to seeing you there!
It was an honor to attend today’s America 250 celebrations in both Wolcott and Southington!
As we prepare to celebrate 250 years of American independence, it’s a reminder that the freedoms we enjoy today were earned through courage, sacrifice, and an unwavering commitment to liberty.
Thank you to everyone who helped organize these outstanding events and to all who came out to celebrate our nation’s remarkable history. Here’s to preserving the American experiment for generations to come. 🇺🇸
I recently joined Dan Newmyer on CT Politics TV for a wide-ranging conversation about the 2026 legislative session, the future of Connecticut, and why I continue to fight every day against one-party rule in Hartford.
Connecticut can be rebuilt, but not by the same people and the same policies that made our state too expensive, too overregulated, and too hostile to families, taxpayers, job creators, and freedom.
That is why I read the bills, ask the tough questions, expose the bad ideas, and stand up when it would be easier to stay quiet.
I am proud to be a strong check against the Democrat majority and a proven voice for common sense, parental rights, public safety, local control, honest elections, lower taxes, and individual liberty.
America is still exceptional. Connecticut can be exceptional again too, but only if we have the courage to fight for it.
