A New Direction for Connecticut

Connecticut taxpayers, we have heard you. Senate Republicans are taking a stand to deal with years of bad budgeting and bad public policy that have landed our state in dire financial straights

We have put together a bold plan to show we can govern responsibility and reduce spending. We make changes to state employee benefits, reduce the size of government, and remove barriers to regionalization.

Our budget makes difficult decisions that not everyone will like, but it restores funding to municipalities, does not require towns to pay for teacher pensions, and holds hospitals harmless.
