To the Editor:

I am writing to you to voice my strong support for both Jahana Hayes and Michelle Ku.

At the federal level, Jahana has been a wonderful representative, advocate and champion for Newtown residents. It is rare in today’s politics to get a person with integrity, grit, and with an eye on positive change and support for everyone. We desperately need to keep her in Congress!!

We also need to keep that same approach at the local level as well. We need someone that will push for education and the environment, while still supporting small business growth and vibrancy. We can have all of these goals and Michelle is that person that will be able to help bring them to our state.

There is no one better suited to represent Newtown’s interests in Connecticut than Michelle Ku. She has an amazing grasp of the issues and will work tirelessly to bring about positive change for Connecticut.
