NEW HAVEN – House Appropriations Committee Chair Rosa DeLauro (CT-03) released the following statement on State Comptroller Kevin Lembo's exemplary career and commitment to servicing the people of Connecticut:

"State Comptroller Kevin Lembo's commitment to bettering the lives of the people of Connecticut shows in everything he does. His focus on helping the vulnerable and ensuring that everyone has access to affordable, quality health care has made a difference in all our lives. It is an honor to have Kevin as a constituent, to watch him break down barriers and lead with strength and courage. Most importantly, I am so grateful to call Kevin a friend.
