Happy Father’s Day, John!
Today, we celebrate the fathers, grandfathers, stepdads, and father figures who guide us with strength, compassion, and unwavering support.
As a father of two, I understand the profound responsibility and joy that comes with parenthood. My parents, who immigrated to Danbury when I was five, instilled in me the values of hard work, community, and perseverance. Their example has been my compass, both as a dad and as a public servant.
On this Father’s Day, let’s honor the men who have shaped our lives by committing to build a Connecticut that reflects their dedication and love.
I hope your Father’s Day is filled with love, gratitude, and time with the people who matter most.
