Feehan Announces Candidacy for 120th State House Seat

Stratford – Former Town Council Chairman Jim Feehan announced today that

he is running for 120 th District State Representative in this year’s election setting

up what promises to be a spirited race with differing views of the future direction

of our State.

Feehan elaborated, “The current Democratic majority possesses an

unquenchable thirst for new taxes and tolls. Our families and businesses are

being torn apart with hostile regulations and higher taxes.   There is a better way!

 We need common sense in Hartford.  The current occupant of the 120th House

seat has failed to meet that need and is invisible in the face of these challenges,

making the need for someone to step up critical to our future.”

“Jobs continue to leave Connecticut and we are falling behind neighboring states

that are benefiting from an improved national economy. Trust in our government

continues to erode when tough decisions are not made, and housing values

continue to decline. In short, this election is about the future of our families, and

most importantly our children. Without a promise of prosperity, our children will

continue to look elsewhere for a better standard of living and leave Connecticut

behind”, Feehan continued.

Feehan concluded, “After consulting with my family, friends, town leaders, and

citizens, it is clear that the issues concerning voters across our district are not

being addressed by the current occupant of the seat and his political allies.

Recent election victories prove that people are waking up across Connecticut. I

am therefore seeking the support of voters across our district to make restoring

Connecticut a reality.”

Mayor Laura Hoydick, a former 120 th District State Representative, immediately

confirmed her support. “Jim Feehan understands Stratford and every day proves

that he would be a tireless advocate for Stratford in the House. As a husband,

father, veteran, small businessman, and community leader, he understands the

challenges we face and will be ready to go on day one with solutions that will

benefit our Town."

Jim Feehan was the Republican and Independent Party nominee for the 120 th

District House seat in 2018. That race was the subject of controversy when a

significant number of voters received incorrect ballots casting the result in doubt.

House Democrats blocked multiple efforts to schedule a special election.

Feehan concluded, “I truly view public office as a way of serving the people of

our great town and state. It’s about love of country and love of community. I am

looking forward to meeting with the voters throughout Stratford again in the

coming months.”
