Forty-one Towns in Forty-one Days
August 01, 2010 Chris began his "41 Towns in 41 Days" tour of the 5th District today, starting at the Warren General Store in the Northwest corner of the district. Chris talked about work being done to help small businesses like the General Store, including tax credits in the Health Care Reform bill enabling an employer to deduct up to 50% of the health insurance of their employees.In Salisbury, Chris talked with a public school teacher worried about education funding while towns are being forced to slash budgets. He spoke about the importance of sustaining these jobs, and keeping up the policies that are getting us out of our economic hole.
Chris' tour will continue through August. Hope to see you in your town!

The home stretch...
October 27, 2008Hi Everyone!
We are heading into the home stretch, with only 8 days until the Election! I know I can’t believe that this is going so fast, and I’m sure everyone else feels the same way. This is such an historic and exciting election, and I am so proud to be a part of it. I hope everyone who feels the same way I do will get involved, be it through phone calls, knocking on doors, attending a debate, or just spreading the word. This election is just too important, and everyone’s small efforts will add up to a big difference on November 4th. A big thanks to everyone who is working so hard for Chris, and I hope to see you out there!

Chris out and about this past weekend
October 27, 2008
On Saturday, Chris stopped by the Italian Food Festival in Avon. The food was delicious and he got to meet some wonderful people too!
Then on Sunday, Chris went to the Stony Hill Fire Department in Bethel for their Pancake Breakfast.
Update from Kevin
October 21, 2008Last week was another great week out in the field for Team Murphy. We knocked on THOUSANDS of doors in the district as we continue to bring Chris’ message to people’s doors. We are a grassroots campaign and we are always out in the field trying to make government more accessible to people. That is why we bring it right to your doorstep! Though walking door-to-door can be tiring, it is truly the best way to connect to people and see what is on their minds.
I encourage all of you to come out and join us! Give us a call at (860) 223-5522 or shoot us an email (campaign@murphyforcongress.org) – we are always here!
We look forward to working with you!
Chris visits New Milford

He then went down to the New Milford Green and stopped by the Pumpkin Festival!
Amy reports from the Waterbury Chamber of Commerce Debate
October 16, 2008While the rest of the nation was watching the final Presidential debate, we in the Fightin’ Fifth had a debate of our own. Yesterday’s debate was the first time the people of the Fifth District were able to hear for themselves the plans Chris Murphy and his opponent have for the our district. Chris spent the debate outlining the problems he sees facing the Fifth District, and how he plans on solving them.
For me, the debate once again reminded me of what is at stake for the Fifth District. In less than three weeks, we will go to the polls to re-elect Chris. As Chris stated in closing remarks, “This time is a serious time and we need real solutions.” He is absolutely right; we need real policy solutions, and Chris Murphy has shown time and time again that he is the candidate who is capable of putting politics aside and accurately addressing the needs of his constituents.
