Sen. Stephen Harding Named an “Affordability Champion”

Sen. Stephen Harding has been named an “Affordability Champion” by the Connecticut Business & Industry Association. Sen. Harding earned a perfect 100% score for his pro-business voting record during the 2026 legislative session at the State Capitol.

“Our local businesses create jobs, support families and invest in our communities,” Sen. Harding said. “Helping them succeed goes hand in hand with making Connecticut more affordable for the people who live, work and raise families here.

“Too many Connecticut families are working hard and still struggling to keep up with electric bills, healthcare, housing and everyday expenses. Our state must do more to deliver real relief so people have the opportunity to get ahead.

“Thank you to the Connecticut Business & Industry Association for this recognition. Lowering costs, supporting small businesses and expanding opportunities remain priorities for me. I’ll keep fighting for a Connecticut where people can afford to stay and businesses thrive.”

Sen. Harding represents the 30th State Senate District, which includes Bethlehem, Brookfield, Canaan, Cornwall, Goshen, Kent, Litchfield, Morris, New Fairfield, New Milford, North Canaan, Salisbury, Sharon, Sherman, Torrington, Warren, Washington, and Winchester. (www.SenatorHarding.com)
