“CT Democrats say we must ‘plan for the unpredictable’.
CT Democrats talk about creating ‘emergency powers’.
Yet CT Democrats do absolutely nothing to address the waste, fraud and abuse happening throughout CT government.
CT Democrats oppose any spending restraint. They are steering CT toward a tax hike train wreck.
CT Democrats have scrapped the bipartisan fiscal guardrails that have limited spending and have served CT taxpayers so well.
CT Democrats support spending money on health care for violent illegal aliens.
CT Democrats oppose a wage freeze for state union employees, who just saw a 33 % salary hike.
Want higher taxes? Keep voting for CT Democrats.”
