Fight to fully fund our educational cost-sharing (ECS) grants and remove some of the burdensome mandates that make it more difficult for teachers to educate our children. Tackle both the cost and scarcity of childcare by supporting initiatives that help attract more teachers to the early childcare profession, providing business owners with economic benefits or incentives to open a childcare center, and working with local municipalities to provide affordable buildings and spaces for childcare programs. Push for increased state support for special education, so towns in the district aren't left absorbing rising costs on their own. Learn more
Support strengthening the state’s power to investigate utility practices and challenge unjustified rate hikes on behalf of residents. Demand responsible infrastructure spending by utilities so unnecessary costs don’t get passed on to ratepayers. Encourage competition and private investment in microgrids and local energy infrastructure to give residents more options and more resilience during outages. Learn more
Let towns buy power in bulk. The Fairfield RTM passed community aggregation pricing unanimously in October 2024. It's already working next door: Massachusetts towns are saving families hundreds of dollars. We just need Hartford to let Connecticut towns do the same. Buy power smarter. Lock in long-term contracts, like we did with the nuclear power plant at Millstone, instead of leaving ratepayers exposed to volatile market changes. Push to make affordability a factor state regulators must weigh when setting utility profits and rate cases, so families aren't stuck footing the bill for costs that should never have been approved.
