To the editor,

The countdown is on — we’re coming close to the November elections and I want to be sure that the Town of Prospect can take pride in making the best decisions we can by electing Vickie Nardello and sending her back to Hartford as our state representative. Vickie is a woman of tremendous stamina and energy, a person that no one is going to ever outwork. In her years of dedicated service Vickie executed the public needs by standing up to the utility company lobbyists and successfully fighting against rate increases.

Education at every level and for every citizen has always been the accepted path to success in America. It was no surprise that Vickie has received two substantial endorsements in support of her 2014 campaign — The Connecticut Education Association (CEA) and American Federation of Teachers (AFT). These endorsements reflect the alignment of over 29,000 teachers, public schools’ support staff, nurses, and healthcare workers. Yes these are people just like us who need a presence like Vicki to fight for affordable quality healthcare and strong public services. While I’m paraphrasing the endorsement I know the sentiment is strongly in favor or doing the right thing, at the right time, for the right reason. This is really an endorsement of the integrity and dedication that Vickie brings to the state House.

There isn’t a better advocate for women’s access to healthcare, while holding a firm position on financial responsibility. Take a moment to consider the impact of your vote on all the things you think are important. Then, like me vote for Vickie Nardello as the only choice for state rep.
