Women across Connecticut are stepping up and telling people why Chris should be our next Senator.
State Sen. Gayle Slossberg: "Having worked with Chris in the State Senate, I know firsthand that not only does he understand the challenges our families and businesses are facing today, but Chris has the solutions that can really make a difference. Chris genuinely cares about the people in our community. He does his homework, whether it is about job creation or making healthcare affordable and accessible to everyone. Chris is a forward thinker, ahead of the curve and just what we need to get our country back on the path to prosperity. It is my pleasure to support Chris Murphy for U.S. Senate."
State Senator Andrea Stillman: "It gives me great pleasure to endorse Chris Murphy for U.S. Senate. I worked with Chris in the legislature and it was obvious, from day one, that he had a passion for public service. He cares deeply for the people of Connecticut and, as the Congressman for the 5th District, has represented his constituents with integrity, honesty and hard work. He will be a great voice for Eastern Connecticut in Washington and his experience and ideas will serve us well in the U.S. Senate."
State Senator Beth Bye: "Working with Chris over the past few years and watching him fight in DC, I have been particularly impressed with his focus on manufacturing in CT. In a bipartisan way, he is working to keep jobs in the US, particularly military defense manufacturing jobs. This approach is good national defense policy and smart job growth policy for Connecticut."
State Rep Betsy Ritter: "I am happy to endorse Chris Murphy as Connecticut's next U.S. Senator. When I first got to our state legislature, Chris was chairman of the Public Health Committee and I know firsthand what a highly skilled, hard-working, and accomplished legislator he is. Chris understands Connecticut, cares about our future, and brings smart, effective and pragmatic approaches to the problems we face in Washington and abroad. He will be a great Senator for Connecticut!"
State Rep. Melissa Olson: I am proud to be supporting Chris for U.S. Senate. Chris is an energetic and passionate legislator who gets the issues and works hard to find common sense solutions to complex problems. He will be a great voice for Norwich and all of eastern Connecticut in the Senate and I look forward to working with him."
State Rep. Linda Gentile: "I'm proud to endorse Chris Murphy for U.S. Senate. He is a proven fighter with a record of working to create jobs here in Connecticut through his Buy American efforts. I know he will fight to bring jobs to Derby, Ansonia, and the rest of the All-American Valley as our United States Senator and that is why I am enthusiastically supporting his campaign."
State Rep. Vickie Nardello: "I worked directly with Chris while he served in the Connecticut General Assembly. His leadership skills were evident immediately because he was willing to take on difficult issues that others avoided. It is my pleasure to endorse his candidacy for the Senate. Connecticut will be well served by electing Chris Murphy."
State Rep. Lonnie Reed: "Chris Murphy is outstanding in every way and exactly what we need in a United States Senator. It took Chris very little time to establish himself in Washington as an energetic leader who knows how to get things done. He tackles the most challenging issues, casts the tough votes, and always puts the people first. Youthful, accessible, and totally committed to public service, Chris will hit the ground running in the U.S. Senate and continue to fight effectively for Connecticut and to make us proud."
