I’ve been a educator for 10+ years,2023 candidate for East Lyme Planning Commission. 2022 candidate for state representative in CT’s 37th district.

[Senator Bob Duff, Majority Leader, Connecticut @senatorduff]

Glad this became law

Connecticut now bans open carrying of firearms in public places

I wrote about the underhanded tactics that the republicans on the East Lyme zoning commission have used to flip control to themselves. Ignoring the community. Vote Row A on November 7th #eastlyme #niantic #connecticut https://t.co/Z9AhpgS5Bo

[Our Revolution @OurRevolution]

It's time for a 4-day workweek.

[Connecticut Education Association (CEA) @ceanews]

The Norwich Teachers League is rallying tonight to call on the Board of Ed to do the right thing and support teachers in the face of an abusive district administration.

[Nick Menapace @MenapaceforCT]

Norwich teachers league has been rallying since 6 and the Norwich school board is still refusing to let anyone in to the meeting. We want to be heard but it seems they don’t want to listen #unionstrong #CEA #norwich #supportteachers

[Comptroller Sean Scanlon @CTComptroller]

We have $40 billion in pension debt

That’s really bad

We’ve paid down almost $8 billion of it since 2019

We’ll pay off another $2 billion this year

That’s really good

The fiscal policies we’ve put in place are working

And we must continue them

Cutting public transit is the wrong choice for Connecticut

[Connecticut Public Transportation Council @CTRailCouncil]

Make no mistake- the devastating cuts to Shoreline East will add more drivers to I-95, increase our VMT (vehicle miles traveled) AND waste our previous investments in stations and M8 cars. Those parking lots used to be full. What a huge step backwards!

[Nick Menapace @MenapaceforCT]

I’m running for East Lyme Planning board and I wrote @thedayct about why it’s so important to preserve open space https://t.co/MOWLeXCqSi

[Pro-Homes CT @prohomesct]

Flooding smoke heat bugs 😥The effects of climate change are here + more is coming

But we can help ourselves through zoning reforms that increase density around transit🫡

⬇️sprawl = ⬆️green space

⬇️driving = ⬇️carbon emissions

⬆️MFHs = ⬇️energy costs

[Pro-Homes CT @prohomesct]

This editorial rightfully calls on the state (which has authority over local zoning regulations) to step up and address the housing crisis in CT but yes it is nice to have @ChrisMurphyCT speaking about it

Our statement, following a disappointing 2023 legislative session.

Democrats, especially House leaders, allowed corporate centrists to take control of the agenda:

Happy Pride month from our home to yours. #Pride2023

[Nick Menapace @MenapaceforCT]

I made sure to #wearorange today for #nationalgunviolenceawarenessday . We can stop the epidemic of gun violence in our state and nation with better gun laws. We cannot afford to wait. #connecticut #endgunviolence

[Governor Ned Lamont @GovNedLamont]

It fills me with great pride to officially proclaim June as Pride Month in Connecticut. 🏳️‍🌈

We will always value ourselves as being a place where people are free to be who they are, and live with dignity and respect.

[Nick Menapace @MenapaceforCT]

Glad to come out! #connecticut #equitycantwait

[CT Working Families @CTWFP]

Here is the first wave of advocates hitting the Capitol in support of a Worker’s Equity Agenda!

[Connecticut Dems @CTDems]

The CT GOP is spreading misinformation tonight. There is no tax increase in SB 999.

Please, CT GOP, ask any mayor what a grand list is and how they and the finance board determine a mill rate.

Do some arithmetic to see how ridiculous your claim is. And stop spreading lies.

#UnionStrong

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Ben & Jerry’s has a long and proud history of being a progressive and socially conscious company. Now that scoopers in Burlington, VT have come together to form a union, my strong hope is that the company will voluntarily recognize the union and negotiate a fair first contract.

[Hartford Athletic @hfdathletic]

GOOD LUCK TONIGHT TO THE @WolfPackAHL!!! MAKE SURE YOU HEAD TO @XLCenter TO WATCH THEM GO FOR IT. YES, WE'RE EXCITED!!!!!!!
