Last month, Lt. Governor Susan Bysiewicz visited our District Council office, where she engaged in an open discussion with about the issues that matter most to working families. Her visit underscored the important role of unions in shaping Connecticut’s future and protecting the rights of tradespeople.

Why it matters

Lt. Governor Bysiewicz’s ongoing support highlights the critical need for strong partnerships between labor and government. As we work to create more job opportunities and secure better working conditions for all, her advocacy strengthens our ability to influence positive change in the state.

Impact

The conversation with Lt. Governor Bysiewicz reinforced her commitment to improving the lives of our members. From expanding apprenticeship programs to supporting policies that secure fair wages, her visit demonstrated that the concerns of working families are a top priority in Hartford.

We are grateful for her continued support and look forward to collaborating on future initiatives that will benefit all workers.
