The rough agenda for the first two years following election.  

 

Note that two grand things will NOT be tackled until after 2020, only tweaked: 

            extricating from medicare

            and

            Pre-K education.

 

Both are important, but both will be in play on a national basis leading to the 2020 elections.  So these are two areas for NOT jumping forward.  Plus, we have SOOOO many other good things to do.  Voila!

​

November 2018:

 

Nov 7, 2018  Sleep.  Every energetic campaigner who wants to work shaping the new administration gets 4 - 20 days R & R. 

 

11/11/18  Veterans' Day commemoration and then Election Party at Dunkin Donuts Park. 

All campaign staff planning to stay on convene on Tuesday 11/27 for hands-on work of making the state better.   Those skilled on phones continue our private efforts to land International firms in Connecticut, this time with state imprimatur.  Those who assess talent well begin to recruit and survey outsiders bring to state governance and quasi-governance.   Those who are good fundraisers, turn their attention to growing the LF, CC, and EE funds. 

 

Mid-November: Thank you notes.  And questions for all supporters who've been in touch for months "how can this governor and this incoming General Assembly help you?"

 

Facilitate Hartford and other urban students attending GOOD schools if they wish.  Starting in January (new semester) no minority child who wants to be in a magnet school is denied based on skin color.  Sheff v. ONeill is at end.

 

Meet with people who were angered during the campaign.  Assess their continuing complaints.  

Late November:  Issue to all state employees questionnaires:  "how would you do your work better privately?"

Meet with Police Chiefs to discuss community policing.  

Meet with School Boards + Educators to discuss smooth transitions for parent choice, better offerings, bringing in online teaching, guns in citizens' hands outside of schools. sex ed, civics, SAT excellence, funding sports and arts, Common Core.  All on the agenda.

 

December 2018:

 

Hold office meetings wherever we get space to organize.   Get confidentiality signatures and pledges to the weekly mantra "how can I help Connecticut this week?"

D 18  Assess first state employee responses to "how would you do your work better privately?"

D 18  Interview candidates to replace those who will be leaving state service.

D 18  Meet with state police, local police, and private security professionals, esp. regarding prevention of terrorism at malls, power plants, churches, and sporting events.

D 18  Meet Gov. Malloy to work on continuing the GOOD things he inaugurated or continued.  Work with Gov Malloy to do any Good things that can't be done once he leaves office.  Let him look good / take credit; fine.
 

 

D 18  Meet with housing advocates, homeless advocates, builders, and safely regulators.

D 18  Meet with technical HS, technical university administrators, and CT businesses to streamline flow of youthful talent to CT industry.

D 18  Meet with environmental assessors, private and DEEP.

D 18  Meet with the heads of CT's armed forces.  Learn more about their capabilities and responsibilities.
