The candidates will tour more than 60 companies across the state and
participate in numerous events hosted by chambers of commerce across Connecticut.
“This election is critical for employers and the state’s
continued economic growth,” said Kenneth O. Decko, CBIA president
and CEO. “Business Meets Politics week is another way that CBIA
and businesses are working together to elect candidates who will work
to make decisions that will improve Connecticut’s business climate,
keep our state competitive and strengthen the economy.”
The following is a list of scheduled tours that are open to the media
and the public. Reporters interested in attending are urged to call Nancy
