Fighting for our values by electing Democrats at the federal, state, and local levels. Paid for by the Connecticut DSCC. Shiela Hayes, Treasurer.

Joined March 2009
From the beginning, this race has been about fighting for CT families. Ryan can’t be honest about what he believes and what he’s voted for – on Trump, on taxes, on schools, on your healthcare – is that he knows the truth: Ryan is deeply out of step with Connecticut values.

Ryan just claimed AGAIN that he has repeatedly criticized Trump on Iran. Mind providing us with an example @ryanfazio? Last we checked, you refused to say ONE WORD about Donald Trump's War in Iran for 7 months.

Where was Ryan Fazio disagreeing with Trump since 2016? He wasn't. He thinks Trump is doing a "good job" in his own words.

Ryan Fazio does not support Connecticut’s childcare endowment. Period. This fund will help families save thousands on childcare. Fazio can’t even answer a straight question about whether he supports it. Connecticut families deserve better.

Ryan Fazio’s plan would wipe out CT's childcare endowment, leaving families with higher costs and less support. He opposes the investments that help parents afford childcare and take time off to care for a new child or sick loved one. That’s not standing up for CT families.

Ryan Fazio’s health care record is not complicated: Worse, more expensive coverage, with fewer insured. Fazio has advocated for the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, rejected state action to lower costs, voted against protections for patients and families... (1/2)

...and wants to cut Medicaid coverage for children to pay for a tax plan built on math that doesn’t even work. When it comes to healthcare, Connecticut can’t afford Ryan.

Two years after Donald Trump gutted Medicaid funding, Ryan still has no answer to offer the working families whose healthcare stands in the balance. Just another area where Ryan’s solution is “you’re on your own.”

Whatever Fazio claims on stage - he knows that its Trump's senseless war with Iran that's driving up prices -- and he still thinks Trump is 'doing a good job!

FAILING REPORT CARD Ryan Fazio has the second-lowest rating for all members of the CT Senate from the Connecticut Education Association (CEA). He earned this by consistently voting against education funding and the resources needed in our classrooms.

Ryan was one of 2 senators to oppose legislation that provided funding for school social workers and other mental health professionals. Just this past May, he refused to join other GOP senators in voting for a bipartisan budget that delivered critical aid to our school districts.

Our public schools need more investment, not deep cuts. Gov. Lamont is investing in schools and backing great teachers so every child has a chance to succeed, regardless of ZIP code. Ryan would take us in the wrong direction by prioritizing charter schools over public schools.

The problem for Ryan is you can’t campaign your way out of your own voting record. When CT's kids and teachers needed him, Ryan voted no – no on school breakfast, no on bipartisan education funding, no on early childhood education. That is his real education agenda.

The record is clear: at virtually every opportunity, Ryan Fazio voted to give ICE more power and Connecticut families fewer protections. If he had his way, our communities would be even more vulnerable to lCE crackdowns.

REMINDER: RYAN IS ALL IN ON ICE He voted against keeping ICE out of schools, hospitals, and houses of worship. (2026, SB 397) He voted against statewide protocols for schools when ICE comes knocking. (2025, HB 8004) He voted to let ICE keep wearing masks. (2026, SB 397)

He voted against strengthening the Trust Act. (2025, HB 7259) Then tried and failed to repeal it altogether. (2025, SB 684) Ryan even used his first TV ad to make the ludicrous promise that he, personally, would “deport criminal illegals” from Connecticut.

Ryan Fazio has a lot to say about data centers for someone who isn't actually opposed to them. Gov. Lamont is the ONLY candidate on stage who has said no - loud and clear - to huge energy-sucking data centers.

AI data centers consume enormous amounts of electricity, and that will drive up costs. Governor Lamont has said no to these huge AI data centers. Ryan Fazio hasn’t.

Ryan Fazio voted no on protecting your privacy. He voted AGAINST safeguards to protect drivers’ privacy by limiting access to license plate reader data and how long it can be stored. Governor Lamont signed them into law.
