To the Editor:
As a local business owner and long-time resident of Stamford, I know firsthand the challenges that small businesses face in Connecticut. That’s why I’m writing to express my strong support for Nick Simmons for the 36th State Senate District. I have known Nick for more than 20 years and I can tell you, he not only understands the importance of small businesses to our community, but he has a track record of advocating for policies that help them thrive.
Nick’s work on economic development in Governor Lamont’s administration shows his understanding of how local businesses are a cornerstone of our economic growth. In a time when many small businesses are still recovering from the impacts of COVID-19, Nick’s experience in helping manage the state’s response to the pandemic is invaluable. He has seen how critical it is to have leaders who can quickly respond to crises and ensure businesses get the support they need to stay afloat.
In short: Nick recognizes that small businesses drive job creation and innovation, and he is committed to keeping taxes low and making the regulatory environment more business friendly.
For these reasons and more, I fully support Nick Simmons for State Senate. He is the right choice to champion small businesses and ensure they continue to be the backbone of our community.
Sincerely,
