❤️ Light It Up Red!

I’m proud to join the Light It Up Red Campaign to raise awareness and support students with dyslexia and other learning differences.

Here in Newtown and Sandy Hook, we know how important it is to support our children, listen to parents, and make sure every student has the opportunity to succeed. Through my work on the Education Committee and conversations with local families and advocates, I’ve always believed that students learn in different ways, and our schools need to recognize and support those differences.

Every child deserves to feel understood, supported, and equipped to reach their full potential. That means listening to families, raising awareness, and turning that awareness into meaningful action.

I’ll continue advocating for students and families in Newtown and across Connecticut to ensure their voices are heard.

Let’s keep working together to make a difference. Light It Up Red! ❤️

Great news! I am pleased to share that several organizations in Newtown are recipients of Supporting Arts grants from the Connecticut Office of the Arts. This program is funded through federal support from the National Endowment for the Arts and state funds allocated by the General Assembly.

$6,044 was awarded to Ben's Lighthouse in Newtown, $4,014 to Newtown Municipal Arts Department (Edmond Town Hall), and $3,503 to Mad Hatter Chorus (Danbury Chapter of SPEBSQSA) in Newtown.

Bolinsky Calls for Suspension of Connecticut Gas & Diesel Taxes

Newtown State Representative Mitch Bolinsky is calling on Governor Ned Lamont and legislative Democrats to join Republicans in suspending Connecticut’s gasoline and diesel taxes through the end of the year.

Connecticut drivers currently pay a 25-cent-per-gallon tax on gasoline and a 49.9-cent-per-gallon tax on diesel. Suspending the taxes through December 31 would save an estimated $2.75 per fill-up for gasoline and $5.49 for diesel.

September 11, 2001, is a day none of us will ever forget. God bless the families of those we lost, our first responders, and the United States of America.

Twenty-five years later, we still remember the innocent lives taken that day, the families forever changed, and the first responders who ran toward danger while others ran away.

As the State Representative for Newtown, I am especially mindful of the 161 Connecticut-connected lives lost on 9/11—and of the many New Yorkers who have since made our community their home. They brought with them not only their families and their hopes, but also the lasting imprint of that tragic day. Those we lost were our neighbors, friends, family members, and fellow Americans. Their names and their stories must never be forgotten.

Today, we pause to remember those we lost, to pray for their families, and to honor the extraordinary courage and sacrifice of the first responders who answered the call.

May we always remember, honor, and never forget.
