UPCOMING EVENTS
Join Sen. Jeff Gordon for a Legislative Update in the 35th District!
“The people of Connecticut want common sense, a fair deal, and their state government to work for them. They know what is best for their families and them. My goal is to take this message to the Capitol for you, working to deliver solutions that make your lives better.”
Connecticut residents are still dealing with some of the highest utility costs in the country, and I remain committed and active to lowering them.
I sent a follow-up letter requesting a full audit of PURA’s pandemic moratorium program to determine how it was handled and whether ratepayers were unfairly burdened. Previously, despite my meeting with the former Chair, I received no information.
I will continue pushing for transparency and clear accounting of the Public Benefits Tax which was put in place unilaterally by the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (and extended at the request of the Energy & Technology Committee Chairs).
We owe it to ratepayers to ensure fairness and restore trust in the process.
Happy Easter to your family and you!🌷
Wishing you a day filled with love, peace, beautiful new beginnings. and a little bit of chocolate too.
⚾️This morning I put on my work gloves and helped spring clean up at Bowen Memorial Field in Eastford for the Pomfret Eastford Little League - PELL. A lot of good work done by a crew of people. Everyone enjoyed the pizza and soda I brought. An annual tradition of mine in Eastford.👍
