"Think about women seeking reproductive healthcare." In which state does Brandon think he's running for office? If that's your moral imperative to run for office, move to Texas and insert yourself in their culture wars. Campaigns like this one choose the very odd "but Trump" angle because they have no other leg to stand on. Mitch has represented Newtown with integrity in Hartford, and it is evidenced by the complete lack of criticism of his record in the statements above.

That may have been true in 1995-2008 when every new unit of housing had 1.5 kids, but with an aging population and declining birth rates, our demographics have stabilized and our enrolment has been decreasing for 20 years while population has remained relatively flat at 28k. Less people in the homes. Not all households use the same amount of services as 2/3rds of our budget is for education. For example, Senior housing uses very little services relative to the taxes they pay, and we recognize that with a Senior Tax Credit to keep them here. It is the same for one bedroom units. Age diversity distributes the costs of education, and housing diversity supports age diversity, allowing young people to live in town and seniors to downsize (freeing up their colonials for new families.) Newtown and R-2 zoning pushes a type of building geared towards families with kids, but 4,000 sq ft 4 br homes with big lawns to mow are not what young people or empty nesters are looking for or can justify at those phases of their lives. There is also a commercial aspect as CT business associations routinely support housing so their employees can afford to live close to their jobs. Commercial tax payers need employees, be it manufacturing, medical, retail, services or our restaurants. Without a workforce, commercial property is less desirable, the commercial assessments decline and more of the tax burden gets shifted onto residential at revaluation. Housing supports the school district too. Where can a bus driver afford to live in Newtown? Why would a bus driver commute to our community to drive a bus when the municipalities they can afford to live in also need bus drivers? Newtown schools would have to pay more to incentivize them to commute further (increasing traffic on the highways.) Its no wonder we have had a chronic a bus driver shortage.

It may seem like a foreign concept to a partisan political insider, but many in Newtown feel Mitch won by a larger margin because of his years of community focused constituent service, helping local families and businesses navigate state bureaucracy during COVID, and successfully advancing legislation, especially for seniors and our special education families.

Sad to see that Mrs. Pesce has passed. She was my teacher at Sandy Hook School Grade 4 1964-65. I believe it was her first year teaching, We shared the same birthday. She was my “favorite” teacher. May she RIP.

Thanks for your opinion Chris. Unfortunately, it sounds like Mr. Moore's solution for our local budget woes is to pump Hartford for handouts while the party with our taxpayer dollars is still raging. How long is that party expected to last? As a citizen who pays taxes to both the town of Newtown and the state of Connecticut it feels like the solution being sold is to simply take the funds from my OTHER pocket now that the first one has run dry. Newtown, like the state of Connecticut, is really only going to help with our affordability crisis by ending business-unfriendly practices, and focus on attracting businesses that generate good paying careers and a solid commercial tax base. Hoping that the party never ends in Hartford is not a plan, it's a pipe dream.
