Latest News from the State Capitol
Outgoing Gov. Dan Malloy has decided that after seven and a half years in office, he wants to put $10 million on the state taxpayers’ credit card to study the issue of tolls in Connecticut even though this measure did not make its way out of the 2018 legislative process.
Think about that.
As Gov. Malloy is leaving the job…he wants to borrow $10 million of OUR money…to study tolls!
Tolls on I-95, I-91, I-84, Routes 8 and 25, the Wilbur Cross Parkway, the Merritt Parkway, and more.
The state Bond Commission is expected to vote on the $10 million allocation on July 25.
If you want to help defeat this $10 million proposal, please contact members of the Bond Commission and urge them to “Vote NO on the Tolls Study!”
