Cinzia Lettieri is a breath of fresh air for constituents in the 35th Assembly District. She has demonstrated that she is up for the job to represent us. She brings immeasurable experience in advocacy and community service, and has the leadership skills and determination to serve us well. In addition to her career in education, Cinzia also serves on the Clinton Water Pollution Control Commission, as well as Planning and Zoning. She is also
the Westbrook Girl Scouts Cookie Sales Manager. Her interest in serving does not end there.
She is a strong advocate for the environment and supports climate change measures to benefit us all. She is also committed to protecting women’s healthcare and reproductive rights, and for diversifying educational programs in Connecticut to ensure skilled workers in healthcare and the trades for our future.
Cinzia is affable and approachable, curious, and genuinely concerned. She is eager to hear what is important to the voters and how she might represent their interests. Most importantly, she is accessible and transparent. She is not afraid to tell voters what she believes in and how she will work for them. This is a welcome approach in contrast to her opponent.
Constituents typically enjoy an ongoing dialogue with their state representative, knowing how they are voting in the legislature and why, and seeing that they are making opportunities to hear about our local concerns.
Cinzia Lettieri has been going door to door for months in our community and I feel that we already know her and what she stands for. I plan to vote for Cinzia because I believe that she will provide the leadership we need in our local towns. Leadership matters. She will make a difference.
Vote on November 5th for “a breath of fresh air.”
