In this week’s episode, host Ryan Coonerty talks with Fairfield, CT Representative Cristin McCarthy Vahey, a long-time NewDEALer and brave public policy advocate. They discuss her work from last year’s legislative session to increase housing and improve equity measures in her state, her new challenges as the co-chair of the Public Health Committee, and how her experience as a social worker informs her decisions. They also remember her colleague Quentin “Q” Williams, a fellow NewDEAL Leader who tragically passed away at the beginning of the year. Tune in for this insightful and inspirational conversation with a truly engaged public servant.
