Hartford CT- Today Americans for Prosperity-Connecticut (AFP-CT) responded to Governor Malloy’s State of the State Address.

“After listening to the Governor’s State of the State address today, I am concerned that the Governor does not understand the current state in which we find ourselves,” said JR Romano, State Director AFP-CT. “His delivery of a speech full of empty accomplishments and lofty goals for the future demonstrates that he either doesn’t understand the state we are currently in or doesn’t know how to turn things around or both.”

Governor Malloy’s State of the State address today marks the opening day of the legislative session.

“Unfortunately for the already overburdened and overtaxed families and businesses in our state, Governor Malloy’s address offers more of the same,” said JR Romano, State Director AFP-CT. “While our families and businesses continue to struggle under the burden of the largest tax increase in state history, Governor Malloy has set our state on a path that will only lead to higher taxes and larger government.”
