Connecticut Attorney General William Tong Speaks on Climate and Democracy in Glastonbury Today
Connecticut Attorney General William Tong will speak at the First Church of Glastonbury at 1:30 p.m. on Friday, November 13, on the next steps for climate change and democracy, followed by a question-and-answer session with the audience.
The event is hosted by Third Act Connecticut at the First Church, 2183 Main Street in Glastonbury. Tong, now in his second term, is the first Asian Pacific American elected to a statewide constitutional office in Connecticut and has long focused on climate change, consumer protection and democratic institutions.
The organizer says Tong will describe the key work his office is doing on climate change and on safeguarding democracy, and will take questions from the audience after the talk.
As a Chinese American elected official, Tong's career is often cited as a notable example of Asian Pacific American participation in public life, and his public appearances draw attention from the local Chinese community.
