Dominique Delivers for Norwalk and Westport.
Every day I keep my promise to bring compassion, respect, communication, and results while representing you in Hartford. It continues to be an honor and privilege to be elected to public service by my neighbors. I am a pragmatic legislator who stays true to my beliefs and works across the aisle to effect real change for our community and the state.
As Your Voice in Hartford, I helped write and shepherd a landmark elder care bill into law, wrote and introduced the Green Jobs Corps Bill on the House floor and got it over the finish line, fought for and won $2,000,000 in the state budget to establish and expand the Early Literacy Fund (ELF) for our children and families, and co-wrote the workforce development, entrepreneurship, and small business incentive provisions of the CT Clean Economy Act.
With your support, we also:
Championed children and their families by securing multi-million dollar investments in public education and school and playground construction.
Expanded our commitment to mental health resources for our youth in school and online.
Prioritized our seniors and elders by preventing discrimination in nursing and home care so they can live with dignity and the quality of life they deserve.
Fought back against Federal cuts and soaring costs by cutting taxes, establishing new tax credits for family caregivers and small businesses, and championing forgiveable loans for first time homebuyers.
Supported our Veterans with property tax exemptions and expanded support when pursuing higher education.
Defended and strengthened women’s access to health care, prenatal, and reproductive services.
Brought back infrastructure bonding funds to make upgrades for new sidewalks, safer streets, and reduce neighborhood flooding.
Established and expanded the Fallen Officers Fund to provide families of first responders who died in the line of duty with cash assistance and health care coverage.
Together We Can
Dominique will continue to be there for all neighborhoods in the District as we move our community forward with integrity and empathy. Dominique will continue the fight to:
Ensure quality of life for all by acting decisively guided by data and community input, being responsive to the needs of residents, and being accessible to all.
Build a safe, healthy, and prosperous future where the hard work of the next generations are able to be rewarded by being a force for good in our diverse community where we share concern and care for each other.
Put children, families, and our elders first, and keep the community we build together at the heart of our state.
