Support for Hwang to keep it ‘real’
Enough is Enough!
I am not the typical concerned citizen who writes Letters to the Editor of newspapers. In fact, I try my best to be apolitical in all that I do. Frankly, after all that is going on in our state and in our country, I feel compelled to make my voice and opinion known in the hope that some of this truly matters to your readers and most importantly to our country.
I have grown incredibly tired of the rhetoric and rancor in politics. It appears that they spend so much of their time catering to their individual agendas rather than being the true representatives serving the needs of the often touted “American People.” I grew up in Brooklyn, New York, one of seven children. My mom took care of all of us while my dad spent 20 years serving the city of New York in the often maligned NYC police department.
I learned so much about the difference between “talk” and “real action.” There is no confusion in my mind about the difference between these two principles. Frankly with all of the problems in our state and country we need courageous leaders who connect with the communities that they serve and have the “chops” to actually take on the reticent and politically obsessed to change things for the better.
What has occurred here in Connecticut has been absolutely horrendous. We are the laughing stock of the country. Residents are leaving. Business is leaving. Crime is growing and we have representatives who seem to be more concerned with their “Washington persona” than getting stuff done here. Like many of my friends and business colleagues — we are done. Over it. Not interested in listening to any more bologna.
Tony Hwang is my pick for state senator. He is one of us. He works full time as a state senator and he is passionate about truly representing the people of our area. Tony is always present at town events, truly working with all of us all the time to make things better. Tony is a real person with a real desire and a demonstrated track record in serving. Tony understands the needs of small businesses and isn’t afraid to listen to all of us and take the action required of a real leader of this community.
He is married with two children and truly understands the plight of families in Connecticut. He is a force for lower taxes, reduction of the state regulations that are crippling our state. Tony has eliminated wasteful government spending, ensured safety in our schools, invested in quality education and fought to improve transportation systems.
What I like most about Tony is that he is real, authentic and present — not some polished-up caricature of a representative and/or candidate. I like that he has a bit of Brooklyn — no nonsense. Like all of us, Tony is driven by an insatiable passion to change things for the better in our state and country. I am going to urge all of my friends and business colleagues in Fairfield and Westport to vote this November and retain a true representative of the people of our state — Tony Hwang.
