lower taxes, LOWER HOUSEHOLD COSTS, HOLD EVERSOURCE ACCOUNTABLE

An Independent Voice for All of Us

Jack Perry built a small business from a pickup truck, created local jobs, and knows what it means to make payroll. He is running to lower the costs that hit home, hold Eversource accountable for high electricity bills, and put our communities ahead of party politics.

The costs that hit home

Everything costs more. Families need relief that is real.

Electric bills, taxes, groceries, housing, healthcare, and child care all compete for the same family paycheck. Jack knows that because he has raised a family, built a business, and made payroll here. His first test for every proposal is simple: will it lower costs, improve service, or make government more accountable to the people paying the bill?

Which cost is hitting your household hardest?

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.

You are the backbone of this campaign.
