PROUDLY SERVING THE 35TH DISTRICT
State Senator Jeff Gordon
Dr. Jeff Gordon, elected in 2022, represents Connecticut’s 35th District. He serves as a Ranking Member on the Planning & Development and Veterans’ Affairs Committees, and is a member of the Appropriations, Public Health, and Public Safety Committees. As one of only two medical doctors in the Connecticut legislature, “Doctor-Senator” is known for his work on health insurance reform as well as healthcare affordability and accessibility, especially for rural communities.
“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 my honor and privilege to host a Women’s History Month Essay Competition with the 6th Graders at Tolland Middle School! We asked 6th Graders to write an essay about Important Women in Connecticut’s History and Their Contributions to the State and Nation. The winners of the Essays include Jonylah Lopez, Stacey Oliver, Brooklyn Stanley, and Madelyn Hurlburt. Each girl is extremely talented and wrote wonderful essays! Reading each of these incredible essays from these intelligent young women brings me great joy knowing that our youth are incredibly bright and makes me confidence that our youth are continuing to strive and inspire greatness even at such a young age! I am thankful to have such bright minds leading the future of our State and the town Tolland! A special thanks to Principal Melissa Hickey and Superintendent Walter Willett for allowing for us to host this competition as well as Tolland Middle School Teachers Lynn Hope and Rosa Racco for leading and inspiring such greatness within these students!
