Letter to the Editor: State Rep. Carney Deserves Re-election; Proven Fiscal Conservative, Understands 23rd District Communities, Supports Schools & Scouts

November 4, 2022 by Mary Powell-St. Louis

To the Editor:

As a physician, mother, Region 18 Board of Education member, and Lyme resident for more than 20 years, I am proud to give my support to State Rep Devin Carney. Over the past four terms Devin has served his constituents well and I am fully confident that he will continue to be a strong voice for us in Hartford. With energy rates due to skyrocket, an unstable stock market, and historic inflation causing significant financial hardship among residents, it is vital we have a representative who understands these issues and how they impact our communities.

In Devin’s time in the legislature he has served in leadership roles and on the Finance, Revenue, and Bonding committee; he is also a financial professional. We need someone who gets the economy and is a proven fiscal conservative – that is Devin Carney!

Devin is committed to and understands our communities. The 23rd District is made up of four distinct towns with different local concerns, all of which Devin knows about and can speak to in detail. He also is a strong supporter of our local schools, teaching professionals, and students. Devin has always been supportive of Boy Scout Troop 26 in Lyme/Old Lyme and has been there to honor our Eagle Scouts, including my sons.

He puts his all into his role as our representative and we deserve to have someone like him in these tenuous times. I hope you will support Devin on November 8th – he has my family’s support.

Sincerely,

Mary Powell-St. Louis,
Lyme.

    Couldn’t agree more! He is almost always available to speak with and listens to you.
