Sen. Gordon Celebrates Passage of New School Bus Safety Law with Education, Transportation, and Public Safety Leaders
COVENTRY, CT – State Senator Jeff Gordon hosts press conference at the DATTCO Bus Yard in Coventry to celebrate the passage of legislation strengthening penalties for motorists who repeatedly fail to stop for school buses carrying children, legislation introduced by Senator Gordon and passed unanimously during the 2026 legislative session.
“The people of Connecticut want common sense, a fair deal, and their state government to work for them. They know what is best for their families and them. My goal is to take this message to the Capitol for you, working to deliver solutions that make your lives better.”
It was so great to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Roseland Park & Golf Course in Woodstock with such a great community turnout! I was proud to present a State Citation recognizing this historic milestone.
I always enjoy my visits to Roseland Park. I learned more firsthand about the work being done to rejuvenate the park and the plans to do even more so that people in Woodstock and northeast CT can enjoy the park for many more years.
The cheeseburger eating contest, Touch a Truck, and the music were crowd favorites. I enjoyed sharing lemonade with the Girl Scouts and talking with local organizations. It was wonderful to see so many people enjoying this special day. Thank you to the many people who took the time to chat with me. Congratulations to everyone who helped make this event such a success!
I’m proud, as Co-Chair of the Rural Caucus, to be a legislative leader supporting local agriculture and to have worked in a bipartisan manner on legislation that helps family farms continue to thrive for generations while contributing to Connecticut’s economy and jobs.
It was a pleasure to recently visit Buell's Orchard in Eastford with Governor Lamont to see firsthand the impact this fifth-generation family farm has on our community and to learn about the challenges it faces in keeping its operations going.
There’s more work to do, and I remain committed to helping.
Buell’s Orchard is a wonderful example of Connecticut agriculture at its best, offering fresh produce, cider, cider donuts, baked goods, and so much more.
Thank you to the Sandness family for welcoming us and for everything you do for our community. If you haven’t visited yet, stop by 108 Crystal Pond Road in Eastford and support this great local business!
Today marks the 36th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a landmark civil rights law that has expanded opportunities for millions of Americans with disabilities.
The ADA reminds us that everyone deserves dignity, respect, and equal opportunity. It shows what we can accomplish when we work together to build a more accessible and inclusive future. While we’ve made great progress, there’s still more work to do, and I’m proud to continue supporting those efforts in a bipartisan way.
