REMINDER: Hear from the Candidates for Governor

Have you thought recently that the folks in the Governor’s office just don’t get it? Have you ever found yourself saying to co-workers that you wished top politicians listened more to the concerns and ideas of frontline public service workers, or better understood the needs of Connecticut’s working families?

This Saturday is your chance to get answers to the really tough questions from Connecticut’s gubernatorial candidates.

For the first time in decades, we’ll be electing a newcomer to the state’s top office. SEBAC, our coalition of state employee unions, is hosting a forum with the candidates for governor on Saturday, March 20 in West Hartford.

All of the potential candidates — both Democratic and Republican — have been invited to speak to union members and answer our questions. The following candidates have agreed to attend:

    Ned Lamont – Democrat
    Rudy Marconi – Democrat
    Dannel Malloy – Democrat
    Juan Figueroa – Democrat
    Tom Marsh – Republican

Turn-out for the event is expected to be high. If you haven’t already done so, contact your union’s representative to RSVP and get additional details on this important event.

This is your opportunity to let the candidates know that you care about their positions on issues like rebuilding Connecticut’s economy, protecting the vital services we provide, and providing a better future for our children and grandchildren. Let’s ensure that we end up with a partner in the Governor’s Office in 2010.

Look forward to seeing you at the forum on Saturday!
