Pre-school graduation and just like that off to Kindergarten! Stevie cannot wait to be at Dean’s Mill School in the fall!
This morning, I was pleased to join fellow local legislators and community members for an update on this year’s legislative session, which officially wrapped up last week. We covered a wide range of local priorities—energy costs, flooding, housing, childcare, and more.
It was a productive conversation, and I’ll keep making sure the concerns of our communities are part of the conversation at the Capitol. I’ll continue to bring your concerns to the forefront and advocate for policies that make a difference in our communities.
Thank you to the Greater Norwich Area Chamber of Commerce - Norwich, CT for hosting this important discussion.
Lunch at Off The Hook by J&R Seafood in Mystic did not disappoint! I stopped in for a poke bowl and it was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and the perfect pick-me-up on a gray day. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking for something healthy and satisfying!
