REP. ROJAS URGES RESIDENTS TO GIVE OPINIONS IN ONLINE SURVEY

In an effort to gather more feedback from constituents, state Rep. Jason Rojas is asking residents to participate in an online survey he has created. Rep. Rojas said he is utilizing the Internet to save money on printing and postage.

Rep. Rojas wants to know what voters believe should be done about the state's budget deficit and other pressing issues, including healthcare, job growth and regionalization of government services, that are facing lawmakers.

Rep. Rojas is urging constituents to contact him by email so that the link to the survey can be sent only to residents of the 9th Assembly District. Rep. Rojas can be reached by email at Jason.Rojas@cga.ct.gov.

If voters do not have access to a computer and want to obtain a paper copy of the survey, Rep. Rojas can be contacted at 860-240-8585 or 800-842-8267. The deadline for the surveys is March 12.

Constituents also may go online and become a Facebook friend of Rojas to receive regular updates of his committee work as well as legislation that he is working on this session.

Rep. Rojas represents the 9th Assembly District, which includes parts of Glastonbury, Manchester and East Hartford. He is a member of the legislature's Finance, Revenue and Bonding Committee, Higher Education and Employment Advancement Committee and the Planning and Development Committee.
