“Wait a Second.” Sen. Harding Statement on CT Senate Democrats’ priority bill proposals. - CT Senate Republic

Sen. Stephen Harding today issued the following statement regarding CT Senate Democrats’ priority bill proposals.

“Supermajority Democrats repeatedly cited Connecticut’s ‘affordability crisis’ today.

Wait a second. They created the affordability crisis!

Meanwhile, the Senate Republican plan will save working class families thousands of dollars a year, every year.

Earlier today, Republicans predicted Senate Democrats would not want to talk about Connecticut government corruption and instead point to Washington DC. Our prediction came true within an hour.

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