Chris Tierinni

As a lifelong East Hartford resident, Tierinni has built his campaign around affordability, education and strengthening East Hartford’s voice in Hartford.

“Families are feeling the pressure of rising property taxes, utility bills, housing costs and everyday necessities,” Tierinni said. “East Hartford deserves a strong voice focused on affordability and ensuring our community gets the resources it deserves.”

His priorities include reducing costly state mandates, eliminating property taxes for seniors, removing hidden electric charges and securing funding for special education.

“Our schools need resources to meet every student’s needs. We must also bring the trades back into our schools, giving young people opportunities for good-paying careers.”

“For me, it’s never been about politics or party lines—it’s about people. East Hartford is my home, and I’m ready to work every day for the community that has given so much to my family.”
