Chris Shea

Firefighter and (Ret.) Navy SEAL Running to Represent the Great People of CT-05

[Chris Shea @SheaforCongress]

Today, I’m announcing my candidacy for Connecticut's 5th Congressional District. 

Connecticut deserves common-sense leadership—and I’m ready to deliver it.

I’ve always answered the call to serve. That duty doesn’t stop now. I’m ready to represent the great people of Connecticut in Congress. 🇺🇸

Good morning Patriots, we’re going to win and send Jahana Hayes back home.

Decades of one-party, Democrat rule in Hartford have led to some of the highest energy costs and taxes in the country.

Melissa will fight to deliver a more affordable state for working families and restore common sense in Hartford.

If you live in Danbury, New Fairfield, or Ridgefield, please join me in supporting Melissa so we can break the supermajority in Hartford and make our state affordable for working families.

I’m proud to endorse my friend Melissa Lindsey for State Senate in District 24!

Thank you to my fellow Navy SEAL brother, Congressman @derrickvanorden, for his endorsement! LLTB

Honored to have the support of all the SEALS in Congress.

Thanks to Don and all of the veterans and patriots who came out to the Newtown car show this morning!

[Chris Shea @SheaforCongress]

Connecticut is overdue for a leader who doesn't just talk about defending our rights but has fought for them.

As a veteran, I know the importance of the Second Amendment, and in Congress I'll never stop fighting to protect it.

Had the good luck of not getting rained out and the privilege of marching in the Watertown and Wolcott Memorial Day parades with Joe Poletta, Eric Berthel, Rob Sampson, Gayle Mastrofrancesco this weekend. It is always good to see folks out in remembrance of our fallen.
