I'm the Libertarian candidate for State Representative in New Britain / 26th District. I wanted to introduce myself and tell you about my candidacy. I'm a long-time resident, devoted husband, father of two young children, and I'm a local small businesses owner. I previously worked for the New Britain - Berlin YMCA as Business Manager before starting my own company.
I firmly believe in the American dream. I started a one-person event business with very little savings, and worked hard to create a company with employees and a full-time income for our family. I will bring this work ethic to the position of State Representative.
I stand for social and economic libertarianism, reducing State Gov't spending, and, in turn, lowering taxes. I support school choice, reducing startup barriers and regulations for small businesses, affirming parental rights and securing medical freedom for Connecticut citizens.
This year, I went out and obtained signatures door-to-door to be a part of this election, and I have the Libertarian Party line on your ballot in our district. If you are tired of the two-party control and ever-increasing taxes and regulations destroying our state, and the same two candidates running for the same State Rep seat over and over, vote for a real change this November 3!
I'm ready to do the job and stand for Liberty for all as our State Representative.
I welcome your questions! Please feel free to email me at info@jonathanforct.com. Thank you!- I stand for Individual Liberty, School Choice, Medical Freedom and Limited Gov't.
- I will vote to shrink the state bureaucracy, reduce the size of the state employee workforce, decrease the state budget, and to lower state income taxes.
- I firmly support entrepreneurship and small businesses. I will vote to decrease barriers to entry and regulations on startups and small businesses, which are the driving factors in a sustained and growing Connecticut economy.
