MARK BOUGHTON FOR LT. GOVERNOR
MORE JOBS, NOT MORE TAXES.
"Connecticut was once the economic engine of the Northeast and can be again. We need new leadership that will deliver the opportunities our citizens deserve. We need change that gets government working for us again. We need the kind of future that keeps businesses and young people from leaving. I have a plan for us to bring back jobs, reduce the cost of government, and reduce the tax burden on working families.
-TOM FOLEY
Bring Back Jobs and the Economy
- I will market Connecticut to companies outside our state in seven industry groups that will benefit from all that Connecticut has to offer.
- I will make Connecticut more "employer friendly" by making government more responsive and less burdensome on job-creators.
Reduce the Cost and Size of Our
Unaffordable State Government
- Connecticut faces a $3.5 billion deficit in 2012. I will eliminate this budget deficit by reducing the size and cost of our unaffordable state government, not by increasing taxes.
- While reducing the cost of government, I will improve its responsiveness to the needs of citizens and employers.
Close the Budget Deficit Without
Raising New Taxes
- The state tax burden on Connecticut working families is way too high, at $8,600 on average pet household. I will solve the deficit problems without raising taxes.
- My opponents are saying that everything should be on the table, including higher taxes. I don't agree and encourage you to listen carefully to what they are saying.
Change the Way Business is Done in
Hartford
- I will stop the game playing and accounting gimmicks being used to kick problems down the road in Hartford.
- I will not be influenced by the special interests in Hartford, and I will make the tough decisions that need to be made to get Connecticut turned around.

BOUGHTON
OUR COMMON SENSE TEAM FOR CONNECTICUT
TOM FOLEY
The fourth of six children, Tom
learned early how to listen. At 17 he took a year
off to travel around the country. He worked a
construction job and on an assembly line, and
zigzagged from Boston to Alaska, meeting people
along the way and learning about what makes this
country tick.
In 1985, Tom started
his own business—the NTC Group—which acquires
under-performing businesses and turns them around.
Within 10 years, NTC Group grew to employ over
6,000 people. Tom believes the same
problem-solving skills he used to fix failing
businesses and turn around large organizations can
be used to fix our economy and end Hartford's
reckless spending.
MARK BOUGHTON
Mark Boughton, serving his fifth term as Mayor of Danbury, served as a member of the U.S. Army Reserve and worked as a Social Studies teacher and small business owner before entering politics. An expert on issues that impact cities and towns, Mark served in the state legislature and throughout his career has stressed "people over politics." Working toward nonpartisan reforms, he's worked hard to reduce the size and cost of government, and to attract new jobs to Danbury.
