Gov. Ned Lamont met with local business owners in Fairfield during a breakfast.
Lamont spoke to the Fairfield Chamber of Commerce at the Brooklawn Country Club Wednesday.
"Connecticut has been a lag of job creation for an awful long time. The gross domestic product is doing better but a snail's pace in terms of job creation and that's why you've hired a business person to be your governor," Lamont says.   
Business owners also had a chance to ask the governor questions following his address.
About 145 people attended Wednesday's breakfast.
