89th Governor of Connecticut.
Hartford, CT
Joined December 2018
I’ve had the privilege of serving alongside Kevin Ryan since we were both elected in 1992. He was an ardent advocate for Eastern Connecticut & stood up for working families. Kevin’s personality was larger than life, and his quick wit and keen sense of humor will be deeply missed.

It is with sadness this morning that we learned the news of the passing of State Representative Kevin Ryan. I am directing the flag of the State of Connecticut lowered to half-staff effective immediately in his honor. My full statement ⬇️

I am ordering a special election to be held on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, to fill a vacancy for State Representative in the 25th Assembly District of New Britain. The seat became vacant last week upon the resignation of Bobby Sanchez, who is now serving as the city's mayor.

This legislation is part of a multi-pronged effort in Connecticut to improve children’s mental health care and expand autism services for young adults. I’m glad to sign it into law.

Our service plaza workers work hard to contribute to our communities and are always there for those traveling our highways. This agreement reflects our strong commitment to workers' rights, and also ensures their voice is heard while on the job.
