Troy Gargiulo is running to bring an affordability-first, locally grounded voice to Stratford and the 120th District.
Troy Gargiulo lives in Stratford with his wife of 11 years, Stacy, and their two children, who attend Stratford Public Schools. He is active in his children’s school activities, sponsors their soccer teams, and participates in volunteer efforts through Stratford Baptist Church. Professionally, he works in HVAC.
Family and community are central to his campaign. Rising household costs and decisions made in Hartford that directly affect life in Stratford drive his candidacy. His priorities include safer streets, properly funded schools, a stronger business climate for small businesses, and preserving local control over neighborhood development.
His campaign focuses on representing Stratford residents who are feeling the impact of affordability challenges and want their local priorities reflected at the state level. Emphasis is placed on affordability, public safety, education, economic opportunity, and maintaining local decision-making authority.
As a challenger, he presents a practical, problem-solving approach centered on well-considered solutions and independent representation for Stratford voters rather than alignment with Hartford special interests.
Family costs, school funding, public safety, small-business conditions, and neighborhood development decisions all affect daily life in Stratford. This campaign is focused on bringing those local priorities into the state conversation.

Family and community are at the center of everything I do. I know people are struggling to pay their bills and this crisis won’t be solved by sitting around and complaining. That’s why I decided to step up...
Stratford families are feeling pressure from household costs, school funding, public safety, and development decisions made beyond their neighborhood.
Troy is focused on affordability, properly funded schools, safer streets, local jobs, and local control over housing and development.
The campaign frames Troy as a Stratford neighbor who will question Hartford insiders and keep voter priorities at the center.
Affordability, schools, public safety, jobs, and local control.
A focused agenda for affordability, education, public safety, jobs, and local decision-making in Stratford.
Taxes and government spending directly affect affordability for families and businesses, underscoring the need for a different direction in Hartford with greater attention to household costs and the responsible use of taxpayer dollars.
Connecticut should create a stronger climate for employers and small businesses, with decisions in Hartford focused on supporting business growth, job retention, and expanding opportunity in communities such as Stratford, rather than continuing the current policy direction.
Stratford should seek the appropriate level of state funding for its schools, with parents remaining included in decisions about their children’s curriculum, and recognition that properly funded schools are an investment in the future.
Police should have the equipment, legal backing, and clear authority needed to do their jobs, and be able to protect the public without restrictions that create uncertainty or hesitation.
Stratford should retain the ability to shape its own zoning and development policy, rejecting one-size-fits-all mandates from Hartford and recognizing that Connecticut’s 8-30g framework is an inadequate response to housing and neighborhood development concerns.
