Watch: CT 5th District Candidate Matt Maxwell Says He'll Fight for Veterans, Jobs and More

Written By Wendy Mitchell

Matt Maxwell, candidate for Connecticut’s 5th District, said in his YouTube video that he will fight for jobs, companies leaving Connecticut and tax reform. He claims that he will fight to make the American Dream a reality for residents. “Under my plan, if you make $40,000 a year, you’d see $5,000 more than you currently do.”

Maxwell renovates and rehabs homes for a living and said the same needs to be done for Connecticut. “Our government taxes us to death and then taxes us after death.”

“Jobs aren’t just leaving Connecticut,” he said, “entire companies are.”
