"Optimism is a happiness magnet. If you stay positive, good things and good people will be drawn to you."
I had the privilege of visiting the Enfield World War II Memorial Monument. It stands as a lasting tribute to the brave men and women who answered our nation’s call during one of history’s greatest challenges.
As we reflect on their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to freedom, may we never forget the tremendous debt of gratitude we owe to the Greatest Generation. Their legacy continues to inspire us.
My latest Legislative Update! Representative Tami Zawistowski and I recently visited Suffield, where we had a great conversation with residents about the issues that matter most to them.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat. Be sure to follow our social media pages to see where we’ll be next!
Hunger doesn’t have a season.
On our holiday edition of Senator Kissel and Friends, we highlighted the important work of local food pantries by welcoming representatives from Enfield Loaves & Fishes and the Enfield Food Shelf. They shared the challenges they face and how our community can make a difference.
The need for food assistance doesn’t stop when summer arrives. Food pantries rely on donations year-round, and every contribution helps support our neighbors in need. Thank you to everyone who continues to lend a helping hand.
