SENATOR DELUCA NAMED “LEGISLATOR OF THE YEAR” BY CATHOLIC HOSPITAL COUNCIL
Senate Republican Leader Louis C. DeLuca was honored recently by the Connecticut Catholic Hospital Council as their 2002 legislator of the year. Senator DeLuca, who serves as Ranking Member of the General Assembly’s Insurance Committee, was recognized for his “significant contribution to the public and the hospitals which serve them.”

“I am honored to receive this award, and I thank the Catholic Hospital Council for all of their work in providing health care services to our communities,” said Senator DeLuca. “It is always a pleasure to work with these hospitals to ensure that the residents of Connecticut continue to have access to the highest quality of health care available.”

The Connecticut Catholic Hospital Council represents several urban Connecticut hospitals, including St. Mary’s in Waterbury.

“The Catholic Hospitals were honored to have an opportunity to acknowledge Senator DeLuca’s leadership in the legislature, particularly his work in dealing with important health care issues facing the state,” said Bob Ritz, President of St. Mary’s Hospital.
