🌼💐🌸It was a pleasure to join the Mystic Garden Club as they celebrated more than a century of beautifying our community through gardening, conservation, and civic engagement.
Congratulations to the club on this remarkable milestone and to Paul Coutu on becoming the first male president in the organization’s 102-year history. It was an honor to present a state citation recognizing the club’s longstanding contributions to Mystic and the surrounding community.
Thank you for the warm welcome and for all you do to make our corner of Connecticut a more beautiful place to live, work, and visit.
This morning I joined fellow legislators, municipal leaders, and members of the business community at the Greater Norwich Area Chamber of Commerce - Norwich, CT Legislative Breakfast.
It was a valuable opportunity to discuss the legislation passed during this year’s session, share updates from our committees, and hear directly from local employers and community leaders about the issues that matter most to them.
Thank you to GNACC for bringing together such an engaged group for a thoughtful and productive conversation. These discussions help ensure the voices of our businesses and communities continue to be part of the policymaking process.
