FLIPPABLE: Martha Marx for CT-SD20

Martha Marx has been a resident of New London and a registered nurse for 30 years. She has the experience, energy, and dedication to be an effective leader and representative for our communities in Hartford. Martha’s responsiveness, wisdom, and empathy make her the best choice to be our next State Senator.

A former New London City Council member, Martha led the Public Works, Finance, and School Buildings/Maintenance Committees. She worked with business owners, local organizations, and residents of every political stripe to strengthen the community. Martha listened to a wide range of constituents before making decisions that improved public health, affordable housing and home health care in the area.

As a visiting nurse for patients throughout southeast CT, Martha advocates fiercely for her clients so they get the highest quality care possible. She will bring the same passion to representing her district.

“It has been an honor to see the enthusiasm of so many people who have come forward to join the campaign,” says Martha. “With your support for my campaign, I will fight for Old Saybrook, Old Lyme, East Lyme, Waterford, New London, Salem, Bozrah and Montville. I will be a strong voice to represent the concerns of our communities in Hartford.”

Martha also served as the first female chair of the New London Democratic Town Committee, president and vice president of AFT Local 5119, and District 3 Campaign Manager for Joe de la Cruz’ successful 2016 State Representative campaign.“Martha loves her community. She has proven through her career as a nurse and city councilor that she is a champion for the middle class and working people. She is very strong, has a huge heart, and she doesn’t back down. She is ready to face the obstacles that will come up in Hartford and that’s the kind of person we need there,” said State Representative Joe de la Cruz.

Raised in Waterford, Martha Marx graduated from UConn and raised her four children in New London.

The 20th District includes Old Saybrook, Old Lyme, East Lyme, Waterford, New London, Salem, Bozrah and Montville.
