State Rep. Stephen Harding (R-107), proudly received notice recently that he was selected for a Public Policy Award from the Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) Organization of Connecticut.
The Public Policy Award is presented to individuals who have dedicated their time and commitments to promoting safe and sober driving through effective legislation. Rep. Harding is being honored for his legislative efforts to enact Public Act 16-182, which institutes a Diversionary Program for drivers under 21 who have committed violations and crimes relating to underage drinking; and Public Act 16-126, concerning child passenger endangerment while driving under the influence.
Rep. Harding will accept the award at MADD’s annual Community Champions Award Dinner held in New Haven this coming November.
