I am pleased to report that the House of Representatives recently passed H.B. No. 5295 – An Act Naming the Connecticut National Guard Readiness Center in the Town of Putnam -unanimously.
In passing this bill in this chamber, we are one step closer to naming this complex the Governor John Dempsey Connecticut National Guard Readiness Center, honoring a past governor and former state representative of the great town of Putnam.
There were past and present town officials and General Assembly members, including our House delegation here in the Quiet Corner from both sides of the aisle, who helped move this bill through the Veterans’ Committee and the House. Our hope is that this will pass the Senate prior to midnight on Wednesday – I’ll keep you posted!
