I’ve lived in this region my entire life, and I love everything it has to offer, from its natural beauty to the unique spirit of each community. I will fight to make life more affordable, protecting what makes our towns great, and hold Hartford accountable to the people who live here.

Connecticut residents are being squeezed. Taxes are rising, the cost of living is climbing, and too many lawmakers have lost touch with the people they serve. Melissa, former representative for the 34th, helped build bipartisan reforms that stabilized our state’s finances.
But Melissa has watched those hard-won gains erode, affordability slip further out of reach, and taxpayer dollars spent without accountability. That’s why she’s stepping back into the arena... for you. This moment calls for someone who understands both the complex issues at the capitol and the real pressures residents are facing. Melissa has fought for us before, and she’s exactly what this moment requires.
