"It's an honor to receive the backing of the Independent Party of Connecticut in my run for State Representative," said Jaumann. "I received the backing of the Independent Party and the Republican Party because I am not beholden to a single party, or any special interest groups. If

we are going to change the state of Connecticut, we need to elected officials who are not afraid to think outside of the box, listen to all sides, and work towards common sense solutions, while putting the taxpayers of Connecticut first."

 

Jaumann continued, "The residents of the 104th district deserve someone who will place the needs of the residents of Ansonia and Derby ahead of any party agenda. As an Alderman, I took the lead pushing for our communities in the 104th district to study Regionalization and shared services so we can find ways to become more efficient while at the same time trying to

increase quality. These are types of ideas transcend parties’ lines and I am very proud to have

been at the forefront of it.”

 

Jaumann is an attorney and small business owner who lives in the 104th district with his wife

Crystal, and four children, the eldest of whom is currently serving proudly overseas in the United

States Marine Corp. He currently serves as an Alderman in Ansonia’s 5th Ward.

CT Independent Party Endorses Jaumann

 

ANSONIA/DERBY- The Connecticut Independent Party has endorsed Republican Joseph

Jaumann for State Representative in the 104th District.

 

Jaumann, a political newcomer, is a local attorney and chairman of the Ansonia Planning and Zoning Commission, and his name will now appear on both the Republican and Independent ballot lines on Election Day.

 

“I’m proud to be endorsed by both the Republican and Independent parties and I look forward to

serving the residents of our great community,” said Jaumann. “The Independent Party’s goal of

non-partisan problem solving is the same approach that I believe in, and it is same the approach

that we need in Hartford to move Connecticut in the right direction.”

 

The Independent Party is the third-largest political party in Connecticut and has endorsed many

candidates across the state this year.

 

It is estimated that Connecticut will face another budget deficit in the 2017 legislative session.

In 2011 and 2015, Rep. Gentile sided with Gov. Malloy, and voted for the two largest taxes in

state history.

 

To that point, Jaumann added,

 

“We need a new start. A leader who will be independent minded and a voice of the people of Ansonia and Derby, and not simply a rubber stamp for the Governor. It is clear that the policy of raising taxes and borrowing to pay for the state’s spending problem isn’t working. We need to have and open and honest discussion about our budget and not wait till the 11th hour to have the conversation. We need to tackle the budget problems in this state head on starting on the first day of the session, so we can start focusing on the future and our children’s futures."
