HARTFORD - State Rep. Kara Rochelle, D-Ansonia/Derby, is seeking input from voters in her district as she continues to prepare for the 2020 Legislative Session.
Voters can now take a survey, available on her website here, to voice their concerns on state and local issues.
"I work for my constituents, and our community comes first," said Rochelle. "As a lawmaker, carefully listening to resident feedback is essential for me to understand the initiatives they support and oppose so I can thoughtfully advocate for their needs at the Capitol. My community and residents will always be my top priority."

The survey will ask voters for their ideas and thoughts on a myriad of issues concerning high health care costs, Connecticut's increasing cost of living, managing government efficiency, and strengthening the state's relationship with the business community to drive work force development and economic growth.
The survey will not include tolls, as Rochelle is committed to voting no on that issue.
"I scrutinized all the proposals and versions of the legislation and have been voicing the needs and concerns of the people of Ansonia and Derby to Governor Lamont, his staff, and other legislators every step of the way in Hartford. As a representative of my community I am making sure your voices are heard clearly in the legislative conversation," she said.

Residents can contact her directly by emailing her at Kara.Rochelle@cga.ct.gov. 
If they need immediate assistance, her office can be reached at 860-240-8585.
