Westport First Selectman Speaks Out on Capitol Crisis
Westport First Selectman Jim Marpe issued the following statement regarding the storming of our nation’s Capitol today:
As the Chief Elected Officer of Westport, to watch the behavior and the blatant abrogation of responsibility by the Chief Elected Officer of the United States was discouraging and disgusting. I am embarrassed for our country. Thankfully, as a community, our local elected officials regularly participate in a civil and respectful process that gives me hope and confidence that our democracy can and will survive.
