On Aug. 12th, Speaker of the House Chris Donovan, Rep. John Geragosian, Rep. Tim O'Brien, and Rep. Michelle Cook spoke to concerned senior citizens at the New Britain Senior Center. The legislators vowed to fight Gov. Jodi Rell's proposed cut to the Dial-a-Ride program, as well as other vital services for seniors.
Dial-a-Ride is a service intended to reduce the isolation of seniors and the disabled by bringing them to doctor's appointments, grocery stores, and other neccessary locations. Gov. Rell has proposed that the state provide no funding for the program.
