May 28, 2025

On behalf of the Senate Republican Caucus, Sen. Stephen Harding today issued the following statement regarding Gov. Lamont pledging to veto Senate Bill 8, which provides state taxpayer funding to striking workers.
“Good. We appreciate and commend the governor for calling out Democrats for yet again passing this anti-business, anti-rank and file union worker bill.
Our Senate Republican press conference earlier today repeatedly urged him to do exactly that. (https://ct-n.com/ctnplayer.asp?odID=24917)
We urge the governor to continue to tell his fellow Democrats what he thinks about their nonsensical ideas which crush jobs, working families’ budgets and economic growth.”
