Shattering the Glass Ceiling Connecticut Democratic Party

Madison’s Superhero First Selectman, Peggy Lyons, joins us to chat about overcoming the multiple “once-in-a-hundred-years” crises that marked her first term, and what she will get done in her second. Listen, then go VOTE on Nov. 2!

Stratford is distressed, and needs new leadership. Immacula Cann knows how to lead a team and solve problems. Immacula talks about the challenges Stratford faces, the problem with municipal gerrymandering, and the 100-year-old woman who’s ready to help her make history.

Cromwell needs new energy, and Aigné Goldsby has it. She joins us to talk about the importance of good schools, economic development, and that promise to deliver homemade mac n cheese (to one person in particular).

Connecticut native Kayla Reasco joins Jacqueline and Tenaiya to talk about her political path, from growing up in New Britain to campaigning and working alongside Sen. Murphy, Mayor Bronin, and more.

In honor of Mother’s Day, we talked with Tyisha Walker-Myers, mom of CT Dems Operations Director, Tenaiya Baker and president of the New Haven Board of Aldermen. She started her organizing career on the playground as a young girl and was not deterred when life moved her along an unexpected path.

Gabriela Koc is fierce!  She is the new president of the Connecticut Young Democrats and a powerhouse.  She talks to us about education, the importance of mentorship and the power of youth.
