Spending in Washington is out of control, and our growing debt is unsustainable.
Over the last 30 years, I’ve built two successful companies, founded a non-profit animal rescue and created jobs here in Connecticut. However, the path we are on will not leave our children and grandchildren with the same opportunities. They will face a very different America.
In the last two years, the deficit has increased by more than 900 percent! The 2009 deficit was $1.4 trillion. According to the Heritage Foundation, under the President’s budget, the annual deficit will continue at just under $1 trillion for the next decade, which will double the national debt.
It’s time for fiscal responsibility in Washington.
As your congressman, I will fight to limit the growth in government and make spending cuts that reduce the deficit. I will work to bring tax relief to families and small businesses.
I am committed to ensuring our children and grandchildren will be able to pursue the American Dream without a burden of crushing debt and taxes.

Southbury – CT – Mark Greenberg, candidate for US Congress in CT-5, is proud to announce that all of the candidates in the Republican primary have now followed his lead and signed the “No Pension Pledge.” After the signing, which took place at a forum moderated by Dan Lovallo on February 9th at Canton High School, Mark released the following statement:
“I am very pleased that all of my competitors have joined me in signing this pledge. It is reassuring to know that regardless of who becomes our Republican nominee this August, he will not be receiving a Congressional Pension. It should be an honor and a privilege to serve the citizens in the House of Representatives. Any Congressional Pension plan is simply another example of wasting precious taxpayer funds and government resources.
