Congressman Chris Murphy will be paying a visit to Danbury tomorrow to shake hands with residents at Super Food Mart, 1 Padanaram Road, between 1:30pm – 3pm. Unfortunately, I missed his earlier appearance this week at Candlewood Lake but hopefully, I'll be able to interview him tomorrow.
State Senator and Republican challenger David Cappiello's campaign website just went live recently. Not much there yet but a sign-up sheet but it's something.
I know that the 2Q reports have come out so I'll get the campaign fund raising figures and get back to everyone later.
UPDATE: A reader caught this when entering their personal info on Cappiello's site.

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
