Working Families Party Endorses Bartolomeo and Lesser

Danté Bartolomeo is running
for State Senate 

The Working Families Party has endorsed two of the four Democrats running to represent our city in Hartford.

For the State Senate, Danté Bartolomeo, representing the western portions of Middletown, received an endorsement, but Paul Doyle, representing the easter portion of Middletown, did not receive the Working Families Party endorsement.

Matt Lesser, representing the eastern part of our city in the state legislature received an endorsement, but Joe Serra, representing the western part, did not.

According to The CT Mirror, "The Working Families Party is a labor-funded organization founded primarily to keep pressure on Democrats to back an agenda that includes a progressive tax structure, paid sick days, paid family medical leave, retirement security legislation and a $15 minimum wage."
