New sidewalks announced …
I’ve been up and down George Ave in Norwalk my entire life and it’s always been a dangerous road. Too much speeding, no sidewalks for pedestrians, and a cut through.
Thanks to state funding State Rep. Dominique Johnson and I secured, George Ave will see sidewalks.

Five years ago there was an Insurrection on our government and attempt to overthrow our 2020 presidential election by Trump, MAGA and their minions.
Thankfully, there was enough brave law enforcement, concerned citizens and elected officials who would not let a mob destroy the U.S. Capitol.

He's taken three cognitive tests that we know of in a year, and had a CT scan that still hasn't been fully explained. He falls asleep while announcing military action. Our troops deserve a Commander-in-Chief who is up to the job.
