Ethics and Accountability

I believe that "public office is a public trust" and that is how I have lived my life since the time I swore an oath to the Constitution as a young Army officer. But too many people in positions of power today have lost sight of that fundamental idea, and have used their public office for private gain. I will live up to the high standards the people of Connecticut expect of their representatives.
