CT DSA Endorses Laurie Sweet and Abdul Osmanu in Democratic Primary for Hamden Legislative Council

CT DSA Endorses Laurie Sweet and Abdul Osmanu in Democratic Primary for Hamden Legislative Council

CT DSA is proud to endorse Abdul Osmanu and Laurie Sweet for Hamden Legislative Council in the upcoming Democratic primary!
As incumbent legislative council members, Laurie and Abdul have worked tirelessly to represent tenants and working people. CT DSA endorsed Abdul’s candidacy in 2021 as part of the JAM slate for Council and Board of Education. Elected in the same year, Laurie joined DSA through her work with us while on the council, and has become a valued member of our chapter.
Although their colleague and our comrade Justin Farmer will be retiring from the council this year, we want to send them back to build on their work transforming Hamden in to a base of working class and tenant power.
Stay tuned for canvassing dates as we gear up for the September 12th primary!
