Letter: 'In Support Of Tori Boucher'

To the Editor:

Toni Boucher has been an advocate, a friend, and a mentor, and I’m excited to support her in the race for the CT State Senate

While maintaining a career and raising 3 kids, Toni first entered politics due to her conviction in education. Toni’s first public role was on Wilton’s Board of Education, where she eventually became Chairman. Toni was even appointed by a governor to serve on the State Board of Education.

Toni then served 6 terms in the State House, and then 5 terms in the State Senate. Through her public life, Toni championed education, open space, farms, our trains, public safety, local control of our property rights, and fiscal responsibility.

While Toni may have earned a break from politics, we need her back to help right the ship of our state. We need her expertise to protect local control of education, property rights, community safety, and affordability. Importantly, we also need Toni’s positive relationships she has built on both sides of the aisle to give us a stronger voice on our pressing issues.

Please join me in supporting Toni Boucher for election to the CT State Senate.
