For a thorough review of what is Tax Freedom Day visit this page on the Tax Foundation site: https://taxfoundation.org/publications/tax-freedom-day/

Connecticut taxpayers come in last in the nation, at #50, before they reach their tax freedom day on March 21st. In 2010, Connecticut taxpayers reached this day in latter April. With two of the states largest tax increases in its history under Governor Malloy, this day now comes almost thirty days later.

Americans will collectively spend more on taxes in 2017 than they will on food, clothing, and housing combined.
