A Caring, Pro-active Public Servant

It is an honor and privilege for me to wholeheartedly endorse the re-election of our 33rd District State Senator Art Linares, Jr. During his two year tenure as state senator, Art has worked tirelessly to serve your readers, his constituents. He has been visible, available, and listens to all, regardless of party affiliation.

Art Linares has taken the high road in this campaign. Instead of criticizing his opponents, he has emphasized his many accomplishments as our state senator. As a business owner, growing jobs and improving the economy has been a priority. Whether it's supporting legislation that allows manufacturers to hire apprentices or fighting for a tax structure that will help businesses and working families, Art Linares has been there for us. He has held town meetings throughout the 12 towns in the district welcoming your input and ideas.

Art truly cares about us and improving the State of Connecticut. Art Linares is a breath of fresh air. As the old adage goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". On Tuesday, Nov. 4, I encourage your readers to re-elect a caring, pro-active public servant. I thank Senator Linares for his compassion, devotion, and commitment to all of us.
