"I am honored to have been selected by the Friends of CT Sportsmen to be included in their first ever endorsement," said Veach. "As an avid hunter and target shooter, I appreciate the work organizations like the Friends of CT Sportsmen do to not only educate but also preserve nature and wildlife, as well as the sport of hunting and target shooting."
In their letter, they stated "Sportsmen in Connecticut want you to know that we appreciate your support for issues that impact our community. You have been there for us in the legislature to help ensure that sportsmen are heard. We recognize your contributions and are endorsing you among a small class of candidates in our first year of candidate endorsements. It is sincerely our pleasure and honor."
