Dear John, [[link removed]]
Yesterday, the 2023 legislative session drew to a close, and I am filled with gratitude for what our state accomplished. While so many other states fought national culture wars in their legislatures, Connecticut was a model of positive governance, addressing the real needs and concerns of our residents.
This kind of progress happened for one reason—Democrats leading the charge on our behalf in the state House and Senate. Will you chip in $20.23 right now to show your support for all that was accomplished during the 2023 session? [[link removed]]
