DiNARDO ON BOUGHTON: “HE’S PANDERING TO THE N.R.A.”

Hartford, CT – Connecticut Democratic Party Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo released the following statement in response to Mark Boughton’s withdrawal from Mayors Against Illegal Guns:

“After trying to position himself as a moderate, middle of the road guy, Mark Boughton is now so worried about his political future that he’s decided it’s time to pander to the NRA. Was he spooked by seeing Tom Foley and Martha Dean at last week’s rally? Who knows? Whatever his reasoning – and spare me the rhetoric in his press release; it’s absurd – he’s now shown that when it comes to common sense gun control, Mark Boughton stands against the people of Connecticut.”
