Investing in our local communities is critical to our state’s economic future. Proud to announce funding for a project in Ansonia that will reinvent the past by taking a brownfield and making it available for future development. @KaraRochelleCT @SenGeorgeLogan #Valley #Recharged https://t.co/l9c686rgMj — PolitiTweet.org

There’s a lot of heart and activity in the #Valley! Ansonia’s downtown is thriving with amazing restaurants and expansive development. Had the chance to tour the downtown and meet some local business owners with Mayor Casetti, @SenGeorgeLogan and Rep. @KaraRochelleCT. #Recharged https://t.co/YBO3dMUETn — PolitiTweet.org

Spent the afternoon with school superintendents from Ansonia, Derby, Shelton, Oxford, Seymour, Naugatuck and Region 16 listening to their feedback on our school reopening guidelines. Appreciated hearing the thoughts and concerns conveyed by teachers and parents alike. #Valley https://t.co/0JAj6VoL47 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ned Lamont @GovNedLamont

I'm committed to providing that opportunity through a forthcoming exec order. I appreciate the employers who've done the right thing by their employees, the Workers Comp Commission for operating during the pandemic, and most of all the workers for their efforts & sacrifice. (3/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ned Lamont @GovNedLamont

We can pay a part of that debt by providing workers who contracted COVID-19 on the job during those days with a timely, straightforward opportunity to claim any benefits they are due through the workers’ compensation system. (2/3) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Ned Lamont @GovNedLamont

Connecticut owes a debt to the health care professionals, grocery store clerks, and other essential workers who stood at their posts during the darkest days of this pandemic. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org
