Simply put: the Connecticut Senate Republicans have the business community’s back.

Our entire Connecticut Senate Republican caucus thanks CBIA for all it does to be the voice of Connecticut’s job creators, and we will continue working to reduce and eliminate burdens on job creators and working families.”
