The state’s ongoing fiscal challenges, including staggering unfunded pension liabilities, threaten to overwhelm Connecticut residents and businesses each year with steep tax increases. We need to elect lawmakers who understand that the state must act now to control state spending, address unfunded pension liabilities, and reinvigorate our economy.

Melissa Ziobron has proven that she has the know-how and drive to tackle the tough issues needed to restore Connecticut’s fiscal stability. Her expertise on state budget issues and determination to get things done are just what we need in the State Senate. I encourage your readers to vote for Melissa Ziobron for State Senate.
