I’m a concerned citizen who entered the race late upon learning that our incumbent State Rep Brandon Chafee(D) was running unopposed. Hartford is broken and 40 years of the CT Democrats being in control and the citizens are dealing with the negative financial impacts of this. I’m a frequent caller to many talk radio shows not just in CT but Boston, NY City and other markets as well, mainly about parental rights issues. That lead to being a guest on some radio & televised shows including 2 guest spots on Greg Kelly Reports on Newsmax. I have alliances with multiple parental rights groups & have been asked to speak the CT Legislative Office Building. Since I entered the race late, I was unable to be on a party ballot and I have no treasurer so I can not accept any financial donations, so I have spent zero dollars on my campaign. I’m running to put the people first and not a party. I’m one of many people struggling to make ends meet and I recognize that change in Hartford is needed. I am one of a few, if any, conservative transsexual people running for public office this election cycle in the country
  • Let Parents Parent & Let Kids be Kids. CT Schools allow kids who are gender confused to hide this from the parents, this has potentially dangerous consequences. Parents have every right to know about the health and well being of their children. We need to rid our schools of Diversity Equity & Inclusion themed curriculum such Critical Race Theory & Social Emotional Learning and have a curriculum that will best put children to succeed in the world upon graduation.
  • Leave our wallets alone! Hartford has a spending problem, not a revenue problem. Another minimum wage increase will take effect on Jan 1. This will have a negative impact on businesses, many of whom, are struggling to survive. CT needs to become more business friendly
  • No Deal to the Green New Deal. Many CT residents are dealing with the financial pain of the dramatic rise on our utility bills with a big jump in the public benefits portion of the bill. CT Dems refuse to call for a special session to deal with this problem. At the heart of our high energy costs is the ridiculous goal of being 100% reliant on wind & solar power. These are only supplemental energy sources and are a big drain on our wallets. CT also uses California emissions standards instead of using EPA standards. A change back to EPA standards will be a change in the right direction
Holding the line on government spending & having a curriculum that will best give kids a chance to succeed upon graduation. There are people struggling to be able to hear their home & to put food on the table, those are not luxury items. We must look at changing the policies of the CT Legislature. A number of kids aren’t being taught basic life skills needed to succeed in life upon graduation. I want to overhaul the curriculum in CT government public schools that will put kids in a position to succeed upon graduation
I look up to my parents for raising me with values and the drive to succeed. I want to follow the example of everyday people that do so much for the benefit of others
To realize they serve We the People, the people and not special interest groups come first
I have been blessed to speak multiple times at the CT Legislative Office Building, mainly about parental rights issues and I seen firsthand that public testimony can stop bad bills. I’ve been trying to tell people that say our vote doesn’t matter that they wrong and you can make change. I have no problem bringing up the questions that need to be asked and wanting to find solutions to our problems
Address the concerns of the people and try to take corrective action and at the very least bring up conservation in Hartford to address the need for change
To leave CT in a better place than I found it
I remember the long gas lines and the odd/even rationing based on your license paper that took place during the summer of ‘79. The Challenger Disaster in ‘86 happened while I was at college and it shook everyone up, I’ll always remember where I was that day
I was a porter at the old Brunswick Colony Lanes in Wallingford from Fall of ‘83 to Summer of ‘85 when I left for college
From Dodger Dogs to Fenway Frank’s. It was about a teacher during the Summer of ‘85 drove to all 26 ballparks during that summer. Going to see a MLB game & NHL game in every venue is something I would’ve loved to attempt to do
Growing up Emergency! was my favorite show so I would say Nurse McCall(Julie London) for her ability to keep things orderly in the ED. She was caring, compassionate and strict when she had to be
When both can work together to make policies that actually benefit the people. We currently don’t have this now in CT.
To have legislators realize that we don’t a have a revenue problem in Hartford but rather we have a spending problem. CT’s push to be 100% reliant on wind & solar to power the grid will crush our economy and possibly bankrupt not only our kids future but our grandkids as well
Yes there might be bills I propose that I want to be raised and I might be asked to support another legislator’s proposed bill if they support mine. Of course any relations on getting policy enacted must not come at the expense of the CT citizens
Yes, someone talked about the need for improved mental health and like me was a suicide survivor, so it hit home for me and fortified the need for self help which is overlooked
Can’t think of one
This is tricky subject and we need to avoid the mistake of granting Gov Ned Lamont to rule by Executive Order for an extended period of time back in 2020. We should make these decisions wisely
The Let Parents Parent bill that was introduced in the 2024 Legislative that Education committee did not raise for public testimony
Eduction, transportation
I would like to see a detailed financial report of every dollar spent in Hartford. The people deserve to see a clear, concise report to see how their money is being spent. If elected, I will say that my job is only for two years and the people will hold me(and other incumbent legislators) responsible on Election Day
Yes, Government is supposed to be about We the People
