When the lobbying association, National Federation of Independent Business, endorsed Paul Formica, Republican candidate, The Day reported that Congressman Joe Courtney's scorecard with the NFIB was low. As a woman, I am thankful that Congressman Courtney's scoring with that organization is low. The NFIB is not supportive of equal and affordable health care for women and they are against the Lily Ledbetter Act which gives the opportunity for women to get equal pay in the workplace. I am voting again for Congressman Joe Courtney who cares about women's equality and has a proven record for fighting for the rights of women.
