Hartford, Ct. – Connecticut Democratic Party spokesman Leigh Appleby released the following statement.

“With Donald Trump abdicating his responsibility to protect our planet for future generations, it will come down to states to take meaningful action to combat climate change, and thanks to Governor Malloy’s leadership, Connecticut is doing just that. This is yet another reminder that if we want to push back against the Trump administration’s dangerous agenda, we need to elect Democrats at all levels of government.”
