To The Editor:

If you read my letter two weeks ago, you are aware that our State Representative, Mitch Bolinsky, does not vote for omnibus budgets or bills which are hundreds of pages long and dropped on his desk within just a few hours of when he is expected to vote. Voting “yes” on a bill that he has not fully vetted would be irresponsible and that is not Mitch.

I have known Mitch for years and have been knocking on doors with him many times. In this time of political divide, it is refreshing to see my fellow Newtowners of all parties greet him with a smile and even welcome him into their homes. He spends time talking with them about the issues that matter most to them and frequently gives out his personal cell number. Mitch is available 24/7 for his constituents as many have realized this when they receive responses to their emails from him at 2 am or 3 am in the morning.

Many have sent in letters advocating for Mitch but something you may not know is that he cares deeply about the environment. As a matter of fact, he has been driving a hybrid for years since 2003. He understands the importance of continuing to make strides towards cleaner air, water and energy and he works towards those goals. However, he realizes that government mandates such as banning the sale of gas-powered cars in our state would hurt our economy and take choices away from citizens. Mitch knows we can be good stewards of the environment without mandates.

In short, Mitch is sensible and brings balance to Hartford. Join me in voting to re-elect Mitch Bolinsky for State Representative.
