THIS HAS TO BE A JOKE

This has to be a joke, there is no other logical explanation for it. Yesterday $10 million for a study of tolls and now today, Pedro Segarra nominated as a Workers Compensation Commissioner. Maybe a case of sunstroke?

Governor, after 8 years in office, Pedro Segarra is the best you can come up with?

This erodes the publics trust and any confidence we still have left in our Government with moves like this.

Pedro Segarra, as you are well aware, was a terrible Mayor who couldn't make a decent decision if his life depended on it. What makes you think that has changed and he will now be a suitable Workers Comp Commissioner?

Please Governor Malloy , rethink this and don't make a joke of the process..

  2. Time to back off Pedro. Luke Bronin is a thousand times worse a complete failure to the city. I’ll take Pedro any day over Luke. Put your personal feelings aside Mister Brookman.

  4. @8:40pm...There is a difference between the ways in which these two have failed/are failing the City--the difference between competence and intent.

    Pedro, in my opinion, perhaps did not intend to do any harm but was simply incompetent (and should not be rewarded for that!). Luke, I don't think anyone can argue, is very competent. But his motives and intent have always been for himself rather than the City, which shines through in the decisions he's made.

    Not sure which is worse. Would really like a Mayor that is both competent AND prioritizes Hartford over their own career and ego. But looking at who this City continues to prop up, I wouldn't hold my breath.

  11. Pedro Caviar is totally incompetent and a fraud. Make sure he doesn't bankrupt the Workers' Compensation Committee the way he bankrupted himself.

  17. This is not a joke, Kevin, this is yet another scandal involving Pedro Segarra but this time connected directly to his buddy Dannel.

  18. Makes you wonder what Malloy "owes" Segarra to appoint this incompetent to a position paying over $100,000 a year. Can this appointment be reversed by the next governor or the legislature? Has anyone checked where Segarra's primary residence is? His husband Charlie Ortiz claims Florida as his primary and drives around with Florida plates to avoid paying Connecticut taxes while Connecticut residents will pay Segarra's salary. They must be having a good laugh over this. Get these two parasites out of Connecticut.
