The following release was issued by the Segarra campaign this afternoon.Please Pedro, just go away, Save the last shreds of dignity you still have left. If you were doing your job as Mayor, we would know it, we wouldn't need crazy press releases. Why don't you mention your other accomplishments? Such as decimating the staffing levels of HPD, helping us to soar to the highest homicide levels in New England, not to mention plunging us into debt for the next 25 years with a crazy baseball deal.
Your early UConn accomplishments seem to pale in comparison for us. Good try though
Please accept your defeat with dignity and stop the spin. We deserve better. Your time has come and gone.

FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE : Mayor
Segarra releases first accomplishment in 50-day plan
July 28,
2015 : As a part of
Mayor Segarra’s re-election campaign, the first point for his 50 Days of
Accomplishment plan was released this afternoon.
The first
accomplishment highlights a notable achievement for a younger Pedro E. Segarra:
While in law school at the University of Connecticut, Segarra was a founding
member of UCONN’s Latino Law Student Organization. He also served as the
organization’s first president.
As a Puerto
Rican, Mayor Segarra has oftentimes noted his pride in his heritage while
serving in public life because of the perspective it has given him in how he
approaches and solves problems. He was motivated to create this organization to
give students like him a chance to develop connections in a supportive
atmosphere.
“I wanted to
create a positive and encouraging environment for other Latinos enrolled at the
UCONN School of Law. By building each other up, we created a setting that
motivated us to be our best,” Mayor Segarra said. “I am proud to see that is
still thriving today.”
The group is
still an active part of UCONN’s student life, and continues to offer academic
and professional development programs. It serves as a community for many Latino
and non-Latino students.
