DGA Statement on the Swearing-In of Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont

From the Chair’s Desk

Today, 2023 DGA Chair and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy released the following statement on Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont’s inauguration:

“Congratulations to Gov. Ned Lamont on his inauguration to a second term. 

“In his first term, Gov. Lamont delivered real results for Connecticut families — balancing the state’s budget, bringing businesses back to the state, protecting reproductive freedom, and improving public safety. Gov. Lamont has earned a track record of effective leadership and has worked across party lines to build the Connecticut residents deserve.

“With his swearing-in today to a second term, Gov. Ned Lamont will continue his crucial work to make Connecticut more affordable, inclusive, and accessible. We congratulate him on his inauguration and look forward to standing alongside him in his second term as governor of Connecticut.”
