Chris Endorsed by the CCAG

Today, Chris was endorsed by the Connecticut Citizen Action Group - an organization that, as Chris said, "is the voice for the working men and women in our state."

From his time in the State Legislature, Chris has worked closely with the CCAG on issues from campaign finance reform to providing health care to the working families of Connecticut.

Tom Swan, Executive Director of the CCAG, praised Chris' dedication to standing up for the rights of Connecticut's men and women, even in the face of pressure from Republican opposition.  In citing their reasons for endorsing Chris,

Swan particularly highlighted the fact that Chris has always stood by his Democratic principles - no matter how hard of a race he was in.

At Team Murphy, we're particularly excited that Chris received this endorsement - few organizations have a better grassroots track record in Connecticut, and they will be a valuable asset in this election.

As Chris said, "In an election where we expect to be outspent five to one, CCAG's grassroots organization will be a key to our victory."
