Cut spending and support business so we can grow the economy. That means DON’T pass sick leave legislation which will discourage companies from coming here, DON’T pass the “throwback tax” which will chase companies with locations outside of CT out of the state and warn new companies away, DON’T pass the employee gag rule bill – another union sponsored bill that will send a message to business that CT is not where you want to be, DON’T pass anything consolidating the Vo-Tech schools under local school boards – it would kill them dead!
DO SOMETHING TO REDUCE ENERGY COSTS for business.
CT has 47,000 employees – the Gov’s budget proposes to lay off 175 of them. Seriously???
