SENATOR MARX RECEIVES HIGH GRADE FROM CONNECTICUT EDUCATION ASSOCIATION

The Connecticut Education Association awarded State Senator Martha Marx (D-New London) an 89.2% grade for her work in the 2025 and 2026 legislative sessions supporting educational priorities.

“Our hardworking educators strive to make sure our children are learning, growing and ready for success in adulthood,” said Sen. Marx. “They need and deserve legislators’ support and I plan on continuing to support their hard work.”

Sen. Marx’s votes in question included her support for the 2026 state budget, which provided nearly $200 million in additional education funding for school districts, supported free school breakfasts and increased special education grants; her votes to expand opportunities to support aspiring educators; support for a paraeducator minimum salary; and better protecting teachers through means like enhanced workers compensation protections.
