Working For The 36th District
As your next State Representative for the 36th District, I will work for this district’s great, hardworking people. We need to reduce the tax burden afflicting businesses and families. We need to support our first responders. It’s time to give parents more control over their children’s education. It’s time to demand fiscal accountability and transparency and focus on long-term tax relief. It’s time for a change.
— Chris Turkington
- AFFORDABILITY
Chris is running because he’s passionate about working for the people of the four towns to make it more affordable by reducing the tax burden for businesses and families in Connecticut. As a long-time resident of Connecticut with a family of five, Connecticut has become too expensive for working families. He will work towards lowering the historic inflation on the cost of food and the price of fuel. He will oppose and fight any legislation or mandates not fully funded.
- PUBLIC SAFETY
We need to invest in our law enforcement and give them the tools to do their jobs to keep our communities safe. Residents, parents, community leaders, and police are concerned about the rise in crime. Violent and repeat juvenile offenders need to be held accountable for their actions. Chris will prioritize addressing violent juvenile crime and support early intervention programs for repeat offenders to address the crime in Connecticut.
- EDUCATION
Parents need greater control over where their children get their education. Chris and his wife, Connie, both working in the education sector, decided to buy their home in Higganum, where their kids attend Regional District #17. Parents should have a say in their children’s education and what schools they attend. Chris promises to push the decision-making authority to local boards of education, where the community has a direct influence.
