For the People Who Built this District

I started my first business at 18 with a pickup truck and a plan I wrote in high school. I built it from nothing, hired 50 people, and put their health insurance ahead of buying new equipment. I served on the Southington Town Council for the same reason I'm running now: to fight for the people I live next to.

Your electric bill keeps climbing while Eversource posts record profits. Groceries cost more every week. Hartford hasn't delivered, no matter which party's in charge. I'll be an independent voice for the working class, a senator who answers to his neighbors, not the well-connected.

Perry Urges Governor Lamont to Enact Gas Tax Holiday

Governor Lamont,

Working people across Connecticut are sending out a plea for economic relief. War rages on across the globe and gas prices soar here at home, all while both parties in Washington fail to deliver an economy where working-class people can get by.

Building a better life

Fighting for Our Community

Jack Perry isn't running to make a point; he's running to make a difference. For too long, families in the 16th District have been told to settle for a system that isn't working for them.

An Economy That Works for Everyone

The economy is not broken for everyone. It works just fine for the ultra-rich, corporate lobbyists, and the politicians who protect them. But for working families, it feels like the deck is stacked against us.

Access to Affordable Healthcare

I strongly support a single-payer Medicare-for-All proposal for all Americans. Healthcare is an issue that Democrats have fought for years to strengthen.
