To The Editor:

As a proud Newtown resident, I’m fired up to support Scott Cicciari for re-election to our Police Commission. For over eight years as Vice Chair, Scott has been all-in — steady, fearless, and deeply committed to keeping our town safe.

With 25+ years in EMS and as Assistant Chief of the Volunteer Ambulance Corps, Scott works side by side with our police every day. He’s fought for better ambulances, smarter equipment, and stronger support for first responders. He co-founded the Sandy Hook Arcade Center in 2013 — a beacon of healing — and just upgraded Edmond Town Hall with game-changing grants.

Scott unites us all, bridging party lines with unmatched expertise and relentless teamwork. He’s charging against the opioid crisis with overdose kits and demanding ironclad support for our police. In these urgent times, Newtown needs Scott’s unyielding passion and experience.

Join me — vote Scott Cicciari on November 4th! Let’s keep that unbreakable heart and battle-tested leadership on our Police Commission!
