An Evening in Support of Our Comptroller, Sean Scanlon
Local Democratic Town Committee leaders from across the shoreline region are coming together to support Sean Scanlon’s reelection as Connecticut State Comptroller, and we’re excited to invite our Westbrook Democrats to join us. Friday, March 27 5:30 – 7:00 PM (Home of John Kiker & Daniel Hulseberg) Email John Kiker to RSVP and get his address. This will be a relaxed, early evening with food, drinks, stunning views of the Connecticut River, and an opportunity to hear directly from Sean about his work on behalf of Connecticut families. Sean has remained laser-focused on affordability—helping families manage rent, electric bills, healthcare, and retirement security. His leadership as Comptroller has delivered real results:
