Rep. Wood 2020 Constituent Survey

The 2020 legislative session is here and I would like to hear from you. Please share your concerns and issues facing Rocky Hill, Wethersfield, and Newington by filling out this survey. In addition, you can always call, email, or visit me at one of the many community discussions that I host throughout the district. Your feedback and communication determines how I vote on these issues so thank you for your time.

I have also included a section about tours at the state capitol. I meet people daily who have never made the trip to our state’s beautiful capitol building. Tours are free and offered through the League of Women Voters. I am happy to meet you when you visit and share in some of history within the building. I look forward to seeing you soon.
