Senator Needleman, Representative Haines To Hold Community Conversation Hosted By the East Haddam Business Assoc on March 2

Today, State Senator Norm Needleman (D-Essex) and State Representative Irene Haines (R-East Haddam) announced they will hold a community conversation, hosted by the East Haddam Business Association, on Monday, March 2 at East Haddam’s Grange Hall beginning at 6:30 p.m. Both legislators are looking forward to meeting with and discuss important information with their constituents, especially with the 2020 legislative session in full swing.

“To have the East Haddam Business Association host this event is important to me, as their presence and support will allow for our conversations to focus on the best ways to benefit small businesses from a legislative perspective,” said Sen. Needleman. “We need to support all of our communities, and small businesses often serve as their lifeblood. I’m also looking forward to a variety of strong discussions on prominent issues with the public.”

“I’m excited to join our friends from the East Haddam Business Association for this community conversation,” said Rep. Haines. “As the 2020 legislative session gets under way, economic development and creating more opportunities for employers and employees should be at the forefront. One of my favorite things about being a legislator is talking with constituents and taking their concerns back with me to Hartford. I would urge residents to stay in touch and to share your views on the issues.”
