I will be holding a public forum on Sunday at University of Hartford from 6 pm to 8 pm to hear your thoughts and opinions on this issue. I hope to see you there.

"I am saddened to think that my Republican colleagues have put partisan politics ahead of something as fundamental to our democracy and all that we stand for as the electoral process of the nation."
