Tax reform has never been more important. The Big Ugly Bill is gutting social programs which millions of Connecticut residents rely upon. We need a governor who is not afraid of change and that protects everyone, regardless of if the change is unpopular among the ultra wealthy

Had a blast at the New Britain Democrats' Campaign Kickoff! It’s so important to get involved when you can — to meet people, learn how the process works, and knock on some doors!

Connecticut is ranked among the top public school systems in the country — but also among the worst for racial equality in education. As governor, fixing our broken tax system so school systems no longer have to over-rely on local property taxes would be a top priority.

With your contribution of $5, $10, $100 or $320, you can help our campaign be people-powered. If you want to see a progressive tax structure and an affordable CT, donate now. Let's show people that the ultra wealthy are not the only ones that have a voice.
I’m running for governor to not only fight for a more progressive Connecticut, but also to give power back to the people. Money and corporate interests should not buy elections. That’s why I’m so proud to participate in the Connecticut Citizens' Election Program (CEP).

Why are we running? Because we’re tired of CT’s record breaking regressive tax structures. Because we think we need to stand up for the middle class and fight to fix our tax system. Because to us, it’s about policy, and making concrete changes to help working families.

Today, we launch more than a campaign—we start a conversation. About the issues that matter, the bold solutions we need, and how we build a stronger, more inclusive Democratic Party. It’s time to lead with courage and deliver real change. Let’s do this-together.

A few days ago we received some horrifying news. I am sick for what this means for women and people with uteruses everywhere, especially poor women and WOC. Grieve, rest up, and get ready to fight to fix this. Abortion should be safe, legal, and destigmatized.
