I was honored to receive the 2026 Legislative Champion Award from the Connecticut Alliance of YMCAs! This was given in recognition of my commitment to the state's homeless population and to early childcare. The Director of the Lakewood-Trumbull YMCA specifically cited my work as Ranking Member of the Housing Committee and supporting investments in the Early Child Care Endowment Fund.

I joined advocates and other members of the legislature's End Homelessness Caucus today to speak out against verbal harassment and physical attacks on homeless individuals in Milford and Bridgeport in recent weeks. In one case, swastikas were spraypainted on trees surrounding an encampment. All residents deserve safe communities. The Housing Committee has pushed year after year for more funding for homeless services, and Connecticut needs to do better to prioritize this issue.

I’m excited to share that the CT Department of Agriculture has awarded funding to Masuk High School as part of the CT Grown for CT Kids Program. This is CT Grown for CT Kids Week and National Farm to School Month. Masuk was awarded $3,400 for their "Connecting our Culinary Program to the Monroe Farmers' Market" to increase student awareness of local food and connection with local farmers. The program also provides farm visits and incorporates more local products into their culinary program.
