Work That Pays in Connecticut
People who work full time should be able to keep up with the cost of living, support their families, and know that the rules protect them from wage theft and unsafe conditions.
JACK’S STANDARD
Connecticut should reward work, protect workers from abuse, and make it easier for responsible local employers to create good jobs.
WHY JACK UNDERSTANDS
Jack has made payroll and created local jobs. He understands what workers need from a good employer and what responsible small businesses need to grow.
WHAT JACK WILL DO
• Strengthen enforcement against wage theft, worker misclassification, and unsafe workplaces.
• Expand workforce training, apprenticeships, and career pathways tied to jobs Connecticut employers need to fill.
• Remove unnecessary state barriers that prevent responsible small employers from hiring, training, and retaining local workers.
HOW YOU’LL KNOW IT’S WORKING
Jack will publish an annual district workforce report tracking wage complaints resolved, apprenticeships and training opportunities created, and local employers connected with qualified workers.
