SENATOR ANWAR SWORN IN FOR THIRD TERM AS STATE SENATOR FOR THE 3RD DISTRICT

Today, State Senator Saud Anwar (D-South Windsor) was sworn in at the State Capitol for his third term as the State Senator representing the 3rd Senate District, which includes East Hartford, East Windsor, Ellington and South Windsor. Sen. Anwar received strong support in his re-election to the Senate in November 2022.

"Today marks the start of another two years of serving Connecticut and seeking to improve our state further," said Sen. Anwar. "I do not take lightly the gravity and responsibility required of this Senate seat. I will further the good work of myself and my colleagues as we fight for better results around our state."

Sen. Anwar was initially elected to the Senate in March 2019, and has since played an important role on many issues including securing funding for children's mental health and improving public health in Connecticut, goals and ideals he intends to further support in the upcoming session.

Sen. Anwar will serve as Senate Chair of the Public Health Committee, Vice Chair of the Insurance and Real Estate Committee and as a member of the Appropriations, Children's and Environment Committees.
