Dear Residents of Woodbridge, Orange and Derby:
Thank you for electing me to serve another term as your State Representative. It is an honor and a great responsibility to be entrusted with and I am glad to serve the residents of the 114th district.
The new legislative session begins on January 5, 2011 and most predict the talk of the Capitol will center around the state budget and the projected $3 billion deficit. While the budget and a handful of other hot button issues might grab headlines, much more will happen here at the Capitol.
