Theresa Ranciato-Viele has served our local community in a myriad of roles, including volunteering statewide working with at-risk populations and traveling country-wide assisting survivors of major disasters.

She will bring her expertise and compassion to bear on the problems we face here in North Haven and Connecticut. We can look forward to her working hard on the opioid crisis, evidenced by her NARCAN clinic held this past spring at the North Haven Library. Theresa strongly supports paid family and medical leave, which should be available to all. She is a powerful proponent of affordable comprehensive health care, a right that must be available to all citizens.

For these important reasons and more, I am proud to support Theresa Ranciato-Viele as state representative for the 87th District.
