Look No Further


The political season often leaves us searching for a reason to vote—well, look no further than State Senator Christine Cohen! She’s the senator who gets things done, and she does it without raising our taxes (seriously, how rare is that?).

For six years, Cohen has championed everything from cutting income taxes to increasing the Earned Income Tax Credit for working families. She’s helped steer Connecticut’s budget to invest in education, healthcare, and even local nonprofits. And all this while making sure our Social Security checks aren’t taxed into oblivion!

As the former chair of the Senate Environmental Committee, Cohen tackled coastal resiliency and passed a ban on PFAS to keep our water safe (because, let’s be honest, no one wants “forever chemicals” on the dinner menu). She’s also been crucial in restoring four Shore Line East train lines, ensuring we can all get where we need to go—without running on fumes!

And her opponent? He’s busy asking where pandemic funds went while Cohen helped pay down $7.7 billion in debt. That’s like complaining you didn’t see the birthday cake while Cohen’s already cut it, served it, and cleaned up the crumbs.

Early voting starts Monday, Oct. 21, and runs through Sunday, Nov. 3. On Tuesday, Nov. 5, let’s re-elect Sen. Christine Cohen—because she’s not just working hard for us, she’s actually delivering.
