EAST WINDSOR- State Reps. Christopher Davis (R-57) and Carol Hall (R-59) provided East Windsor residents with an end-of-session wrap-up last Tuesday night.
The lawmakers gave brief opening remarks about their thoughts on the session before answering questions from residents.
“We still have a lot of unfinished business left to do,” said Rep. Davis. “Everyone in Connecticut is waiting on us to pass a budget, and that is what all of us should be focused on right now as the end of the fiscal year quickly approaches.”
Rep. Hall said, “This was a great opportunity to meet with our constituents in East Windsor to provide insight into our voting records, as well as describe legislation that passed that could come into effect soon. This was a great opportunity for Rep. Davis and I to explain our process for voting the way we did on a number of issues.”
For the majority of residents in attendance, the discussion and questions centered around legislation regarding casino expansion, the crumbling foundation issue, and the state’s budget.
Reps. Davis and Hall, who both voted in favor of the casino expansion, explained why they supported requiring a local referendum on casino expansion and why surrounding towns will be receiving additional state funding for potential impacts to traffic, education, and public safety that they may have due to the projected size of the facility.
