Dear Friends and Neighbors
HAVE YOUR SAY: AN ALTERNATIVE TO TOLLS
Democrats who control the legislature have spent three months promoting their desire to add new tolls to Connecticut’s highways, acting as though it’s the only solution to fund improvements to Connecticut’s roads and bridges. They passed three tolls-related bills out of the Transportation Committee, and we await the result of their efforts to meld those bills into one final piece of legislation. Meanwhile, I’ve advocated for an alternative called Prioritize Progress, and this Senate and House Republican proposal will finally receive a public hearing in the Finance Committee this Friday. You can testify, telling committee Democrats that Connecticut CAN’T AFFORD TOLLS.
