Beth Cliff is running to flip CT House District 112 (Monroe, Easton and
Trumbull) blue! Born and raised in farm country in northern Connecticut, she understands small town values and community life, while recognizing that small towns like Easton need active and passionate representation at the state level to preserve their unique character and provide purposeful economic growth.
Beth brings decades of leadership experience to her candidacy. She's worked in marketing, sales, operations, and HR – always jobs involving serving people by understanding their needs and concerns and figuring out ways to address them. Among her most successful projects have been start-ups and creating new approaches for her teams to deliver outstanding results.
A mother of two daughters, Beth believes women need an active voice in government. She understands the relentless and conflicting demands of parenthood, household management, and a full-time job and career. She feels strongly these choices and lifestyle demands need active representation at the statehouse. Women need to speak for women as they navigate adult life – on the job, at the supermarket, at home, in the doctor’s office.
Beth is getting into this race because she sees the needs of Easton are not being met as well as they could be in Hartford, and she sees the national political scene as requiring states like Connecticut to stand firm on the principles of democracy –
including separation of church and state, the three distinct branches of government,
honoring the will of the people and the rule of law – including people’s rights not only to
make legal choices over their own bodies, but also to have access to those choices.
As Beth says: “I have the passion, the commitment, and the skills to serve CT to protect
who we are, and I can’t sit on the sidelines anymore. I am fortunate to have the ability to
serve, and I want to. If there ever were a time to DO and not just TALK, it is now. My
daughters’ futures – and those of all our children - depend on it."
