Dear Tim,

The Citizens’ Election Program was a huge success in the inaugural 2008 run.
More than 80 percent of the current legislature ran and won utilizing the
program. This program removes the influence of special interest money on
candidates, and frees them from the constant money chase so they can spend
time with voters.
However, recent court rulings have challenged some minor aspects of this
popular and important program. Proposed changes are being considered by the
legislature that would put the law on solid legal ground and open up the
program to even more qualified candidates. Please join us for an important
talk on these proposed changes at a citizen forum next Monday, December 7th.
*Event details:*
*Monday, December 7th, 2009**, 7:00 P.M.
The Community Room, Norwalk City Hall
125 East Avenue
Norwalk, CT 06851
