“We are living in very challenging times right now and Tony Hwang knows the hard work that needs to be done and that divisive rhetoric has no place in serving the public. Having served in state government for nearly three decades, it is rare to see such committed individuals willing to give so much for their constituents.” former Gov. M. Jodi Rell said. “Few other legislators make as much time for their community and constituents as Tony, and even fewer do it out of a genuine desire to connect with people, to listen and help.”
“To have the support of someone like former Governor Rell, who I’ve long admired for her integrity and comforting demeanor as our Governor, is profoundly powerful to me personally,” Hwang said. “She demonstrated true leadership when our state needed it most, and her charisma and warmth with people is inspiring.”
Hwang added, “Thank you, Governor Rell, for your endorsement, but more importantly, thank you for setting such a positive example for the rest of us. I am proud to do the important work ahead of us in the state Senate on behalf of the people of Easton, Fairfield, Newtown, Weston and Westport.”
