Veach said that despite being two years on from the start of the pandemic, there are still may items related to it that Connecticut needs to come to terms with.
"The pandemic brought on a whole host of issues that needs addressed," Veach said. "It wreaked havoc on our local businesses, employment, economy, and the mental health of our children. These issues won’t go away overnight, but I'm confident we can find the necessary solutions if we truly listen to one another and put politics aside."
