3rd Highest Property Taxes; CT Senate GOP: “Nothing is Changing.” - CT Senate Republic

On behalf of the Senate Republican Caucus, Sen. Stephen Harding issued the following statement regarding Connecticut being ranked as having the 3rd highest property taxes in the country. (https://wallethub.com/edu/states-with-the-highest-and-lowest-property-taxes/11585)

“We are holding firm at #3 most unaffordable.

Nothing is changing.

And nothing will change until we have more balance at the State Capitol.

Republicans have offered a common sense plan that effectively eliminates the car tax for working families and limits property tax increases.

We urge supermajority Democrats to pass it into law.

Can’t afford Connecticut? Neither can we. And we can’t afford Connecticut Democrats.

The Senate Republican plan will save families thousands of dollars a year, every year. If not now, then when?”
