Sen. Cabrera Releases Statement Requesting Insurance Regulators Deny Rate Hikes

Today, state Senator Jorge Cabrera (D-Hamden) announced three towns will receive grant funding through the Small Town Economic Assistance Program, which supports small towns for economic development, community conversation and quality-of-life capital projects. A combined $1.4 million will be released to Beacon Falls and Bethany for road improvements and Woodbridge for the renovation of the Woodbridge Center Gym.

“I’m grateful to Governor Lamont for making these approvals for the towns of Beacon Falls, Bethany and Woodbridge,” said Sen.
