As we prepare to gather with family and friends this Thanksgiving, it’s essential to remember the responsibility we share in keeping our roads safe.
Tragically, CT has already experienced 299 fatalities on our roads this year—a sobering reminder of the dangers posed by reckless driving, distracted behaviors, and impairment from alcohol or marijuana use.
Every life lost is one too many, and these tragedies can be avoided.
This Thanksgiving, we urge every driver to plan generous travel time, prioritize safety - eliminate distractions, avoid impairment, and buckle up. If today’s awareness efforts can save even one life, it will be worth it. Together, we can ensure that this holiday season is a time of gratitude and joy, not grief and a lifetime of sadness and regret.
Let’s make safety a shared commitment this Thanksgiving. Drive responsibly and patiently, protect yourself and your loved ones, and help us prevent tragedies on Connecticut’s roads.

As a husband to my best friend and an extraordinar

As a husband to my best friend and an extraordinary wife, and as a father to an independent and brilliant daughter, I have always stood firmly in support of a woman’s right to make her own reproductive and healthcare choices.

My personal and religious beliefs are deeply held, but they belong to me alone. I believe, unequivocally, that every woman has the right to determine what happens to her own body. This is not a matter of political ideology; it is a fundamental issue of bodily autonomy and freedom.

The decision a woman makes about her body is deeply personal and often emotional. It’s a choice that should be respected and protected, not politicized.

I invite you to witness the pride I have in my daughter, and I want to affirm to you that I will always stand by women’s right to choose—because it is not just a right, it is a matter of respect and freedom. Misinformation and manipulated narratives are dangerous, hurtful and erodes "trust" in public service. My record stands to always protect a women's right to determine their own reproductive and health choices.

The video, "Sen Tony Hwang - Protecting Women Reproductive and Health Choices," is a testimonial by me daughter and reiterating my lifelong commitment to women's rights. Hwang's daughter expresses her admiration for her father's understanding and support of her choices, including her right to bodily autonomy and healthcare decisions. Hwang himself reaffirms his unwavering support for women's reproductive rights and pledges to continue championing these causes.

From the darkness of domestic violence, @centerfor

From the darkness of domestic violence, @centerforfamilyjusticect Domestic Violence Victims vigil shines a light of hope.

@tonyhwangct supporting survivors & their family said, “your strength and courage inspires all of us and we stand with you. It is so important for people to know we stand and support them, and we’ll continue to fight for them.”

“And let us channel and turn the pain that we feel from domestic violence and knowing those that have suffered, and let’s channel and honor those that we lost by committing ourselves to action and by asking, ‘what are you going to do?’” Hwang continued.

“We need to break the cycle of violence and it begins early and it begins with the young people here today,” Hwang said. “Together we can break the silence, heal the wounds and work to create a world that love is not used as a weapon, but as a source for safety and peace.”
