It’s clear that we need to change the direction our state is headed.

Connecticut is a great state. But we are facing a serious financial crisis. Businesses and people are leaving and all families, especially the middle class and working poor, are struggling.

That’s why I’ve worked with Senate Republicans to put together a bold plan to change the direction of our state and restore confidence in Connecticut. This is about a new vision to create a confident Connecticut today and for future generations. This is about survival.

 Our revised no-new-tax state budget makes the tough choices necessary to cut spending, reduce the size of government, and make necessary changes to state employee benefits – all while protecting core services.

You can support these efforts by urging all lawmakers and statewide leaders to help us pave a new path with bold changes. The time for change is now!
