Hartford just passed a sweeping housing bill without hearing from you.
In a rushed special session, state leaders approved HB 8002, a bill that reshapes housing statewide but ignores one of the biggest drivers of Connecticut’s affordability crisis: property taxes.
While the bill expands state-driven development, it leaves untouched the growing burden on homeowners, renters, and local budgets.
Every community is different. What does housing affordability look like where you live?
Does this bill help? Hurt? Miss the real issues? Especially when rising property taxes continue to make Connecticut one of the most expensive states to live in.
