“Here in Connecticut, we will never be the same. After Sandy Hook Elementary school endured its own deadly tragedy, our General Assembly passed a major gun-control bill with broad bipartisan support. And yet, once again, we must ask what can we do as a society to prevent this from happening once again?” – Hector Arzeno, Democratic candidate for Connecticut House district 151 Continue Reading →
“Let me say to all of you, and to people in Congress who think they can try to ban abortion on a nationwide basis, if you try, I will be the first to sue.” – Attorney General William Tong Continue Reading →
“The town has failed in all respects. The SOMR is a scare tactic, and only represents 150 people who want to change the only regulation that will provide the affordable housing.” – Joe Pecora Continue Reading →
“From a long-term perspective, maintenance of the Town’s infrastructure is a ticking fiscal time bomb. Republican decisions to shrink the capital tax levy to provide a short-term tax relief bromide, reflects a policy of ‘DON’T pay as you go’ and if not corrected will yield gaping holes that future taxpayers will have to meet or risk seeing our infrastructure become more and more dilapidated.” – Hector E Arzeno Continue Reading →

“I credit much of my successful legal career to the opportunity Hector created for me. Back in the 1990s, it was uncommon for a young woman to lead on complex corporate transactions. I still remember that afternoon, in 1994, being one of only two women in a conference room full of male corporate executives and investment bankers in dark suits in the middle of a tense negotiation. All heads turned to me, when Hector asked, “Priscilla, what do you think?” With that one simple question, Hector validated me and my work. Since Hector valued what I had to say, everyone felt then they must, too.” – Priscilla Almodovar, Former White & Case LLP Partner, Former JPMorgan Chase Managing Director, Current CEO, Enterprise Community Partners Continue Reading →
