For the 2023 legislative session, Rep. Comey was appointed Assistant Majority Whip and a member of the Committee on Children, the Education and the Human Services Committees. Comey previously served as House Vice Chair of the Insurance and Real Estate Committee.

An experienced advocate for the disabled community, Rep. Comey is currently co-chairing a Work Group Concerning Issues Affecting Deaf, Hard of Hearing and DeafBlind Persons and participating on a Community Hospice Ombudsman Workgroup. Additionally, as a Co-Chair of the Early Childhood Caucus Comey is working with NCSL and several state-wide organizations to build understanding and support among legislators on the role a strong early care system plays in the economic and family success of CT families.

A skilled coalition builder, she is dedicated to addressing issues facing Branford and Connecticut residents, from preserving the environment to advocating for policies that improve access to care and the health, safety and education of young children and their families.
