connecticut public in collaboration with the league of women voters of connecticut has held a series of political debates designed to educate local governors on candidates running for office in connecticut. tonight we are paying special attention to 40 towns in western and central connecticut. we are broadcasting live from the campus of central connecticut state university. before i introduce the candidates, let me go over the structure. the cumulative time format is designed to allow the candidates time to discuss the issues. the only rule is the total time used by each candidate should be approximately the same. candidates will not be restricted to one or two minute responses. they may spend as little or as much time as they feel is appropriate. our goal is to encourage debate. the candidates will take turns being first to respond. following the question period, each candidate will make a two minute closing statement. members of the league of women voters are serving as timers and will keep the candidates and me informed of the time expended. if there is a discrepancy in time, i wi

connecticut pure does. i abstain from certain bolts out of an abundance of caution, because that is what more legislators should do if they are involved in the industry. i work for a water -- i have worked for a water company since 1992. i am proud of the work i have done at the water company. i have actually dealt infrastructure, as opposed to my opponent, talking about doing it. water, natural resource. i have built infrastructure throughout the district. brookfield, litchfield comic-con, torrington, and more. the last 30 years at the water company. water conservation. huge. i have volunteered to join the housatonic association board of directors. i worked my way up to vice president of that board, because natural resources are very important to me. our natural environment is important to me. we can keep hearing the excuses for my opponent as to why you, the voters, should give her another chance to disappoint you. i am ready to hit the ground running. i will work tireless for you, just as i have when i w

they settled in new haven connecticut came back to connecticut. and for a year or so she continued to work with the refugee agency, but it's headquarters were up in new york and she got tired of the commute. so she quit. and what looking for other work, but she had a kind of particular skill set as an administrator that wasn't an enormous demand for a woman in new haven connecticut in 19 nearly 1950. so it took her about a year or two to get a job finally in 1953. she got a job that she thought would be interesting. she was hired as the executive director of the connecticut branch of planned parenthood. the nation's leading advocate for birth control. now she said afterwards. no idea about birth control. when she took this job. she didn't know where to diaphragm was. she thought that work could be interesting and she hadn't been the strait of skills. the work turned out to be very very interesting. in the late 19th century any number of states had passed laws. trying to prohibit in one way or another birth control. and connecticut was one of two s

i'm the charlie baker of connecticut. we're going to get our fiscal house in order and protect people's social rights and really looking forward to doing it. neil: sir i don't mean to december disparage you personal ly, but some of the tough ride you had in the polls actually has very little to do with you and the fact that donald trump supports you and has endorsed you and that in a state like connecticut, that's hurting you. do you agree with that? >> women, he endorsed me in 2018. he's not endorsed me. i've been very clear on this , neil. as far as i'm concerned president biden won the election if donald trump had anything to do with january 6 he should be held accountable, but i'll tell you, i do like some of his policies. i like lower taxes. i like supporting law enforcement. i like putting america first. people are not, in 2018, yes, neil, they were focused on donald trump. this time around they are focused on the state of connecticut and which person is best suited to be the ceo. governor lamont does not deserve ev

of pennsylvania away from us and make it part of connecticut. but i don't hold that against her because such a dear friend now under leadership and vision, the dennis farm, which includes family cemetery where there are ancestors of hers who were veterans of both the revolutionary war and the war 1812 are interred it's of course, listed on the national register of historic places. this story is told in the smithsonian's national museum of african american history and culture. it has been honored and recognized by the commonwealth of, pennsylvania, by the agriculture department, by the department of, conservation and natural resources, and most remarkably, by this is a property that's the only documented farm in, northeastern pennsylvania, that was founded by a free african american family more than 200 years ago. that still remains in the steward ship of that family. truly remarkable. it's appropriate that pennsylvania's semi ss quinten joe commission this is to mark the 250th anniversary of the nation shows the denys farm is just one of seven s

so, norm paris, he's based in new haven, connecticut. so brought him on because he, you know, had is licensed practice in connecticut. so when he was working with him, he took on other cases so including sidekick of alex jones is named owen shroyer who was arrested for disrupt doing congress by shouting out some conspiracy theory during a congressional hearing having to do with january. so when norm came into town to bail out of jail and plead for him. d.c. he called me and said, why don't we meet at union station? i've got to get back on a train and had backups in new haven. but i'll bring you up to speed on what's going on with jones. and he was always great about, you know, off the record spinning jones's case to the media. so i went sat down with him. he was on the phone about the fotis dulos case and he was saying he gets off the phone, sorry, you know, didn't mean to be on the phone while you're here, but he just tried to post bail and he put up some properties that didn't have clear title. and so we're telling him, hey, you know,

joining us now is democratic senator chris murphy of connecticut. in connecticut's 2000 state teacher of the air, and now a state representative elect chris poulos. thanks for joining us, both of you. and senator murphy, i beg here indulgence. normally, we would begin with you as the senior member of this political force from connecticut, but if it's okay with you, i would like to begin with the teacher of the year and the newly elected state representative. >> by all means, he is the star. >> chris poulos, so you start off knocking on doors. what month free had before that first walk up to adore it to knock on that door? >> well, you know, just to start, we need campaign was gonna be an uphill climb. southern-ton, where we live, it is a pretty republican area. and our approach was to get out and get as much voter contact as possible. i was excited. i previously served on town council, and had some experience knocking doors. you know, it's tough to motivate, to get out of the house, to get to the first. but once you get out there, you start knocking

from both connecticut and texas. and we have with us also former cbs news correspondent and author jacqueline adams. i want to thank common ground, the bridgegw student group, and our nashman center for organizing this special event tonight. at the george washington university, we're committed to an academic mission of teaching, research, patient care and service. and that has long had a positive impact on our nation and the world. one important way to have this impact is by convening and participating in discussions on very difficult issues which is what we're doing here this evening. this dialogue will help to inform the public and demonstrate the skill of respectful discourse and exchange of differing views on the critical issue of guns. many people recognize clearly that we have a problem. there are solutions to this problem. and at a dialogue like this this evening we can identify some of the best approaches to solving this critical problem. in addition to tonight's event, i also note another important effort ou

i kind of like connecticut to stand on its own two feet. they know what i'm trying to do for this state. i'm happy to run on that record. neil: are you afraid that what's going on nationally, though, impacts you locally in your state? i shouldn't say locally, it's a big, important state, but that the tarnish from joe biden, whether that's fair or not, governor, could impact you? in other words, people frustrated about higher prices, from the traited about the democratic party's response to those could boomer rang on you? >> i'd like to stick to connecticut as much as i can. but look, a little defense there. the president is the infrastructure president. i've had every president since i've been alive, and i've been around for a long time, saying they're going to be that. i've got 100-year-old roads and bridges, it's going to be transformative some of the investments we're getting. a lot of that is having a partner in washington d.c. neil: i get that, sir. saying these are things that are in the offing that are coming your way. the frustratio
