HARTFORD – State Representative Anne Dauphinais (R-44) was sworn into her first term on Wednesday morning as the 2017 Legislative Session convened. The Connecticut General Assembly will continue the current session for a five-month period.
“I am eager to bring the voice of the residents of Killingly and Plainfield to the Capitol over the next two years,” stated Rep. Dauphinais. “It is a priority of mine to reverse the poor economic trends, which have been compounded by the poor budgeting policies of the Majority Party for far too long in Hartford. I will encourage my new legislative colleagues to explore options that will close the ever growing deficit in order to create the necessary financial stability for our businesses and towns.”
Rep. Dauphinais has been assigned by House Republican leadership to serve on the General Assembly’s Public Safety, Human Services, and Children’s Committees. Although this is Rep. Dauphinais first term in the legislature, she is no stranger to public service and previously worked as a case manager for the state Department of Correction.
The legislative session will adjourn on Wednesday, June 7th.
