Connecticut Dems Pushed BS Trump-Russia Hoax then Impeached With the Durham Report’s analysis that the FBI & DOJ had no basis to open their investigation into President Trump, it is worth noting that every Connecticut Democrat in Congress voted to impeach President Trump based on what is being confirmed as a seriously flawed investigation with little to no basis in fact. “The Durham Report is damning. John Durham in his report shows how the Democrats weaponized government law enforcement agencies by engaging in outrageous, unacceptable, and borderline illegal behavior, for the sole purposes of attempting to bring down a sitting
CT Ranks Among Highest Property Tax States- Democrats Want More This week Connectiut Democrats passed SB999 (An Act Increasing the Uniform Assessment Rate for Property Tax) out of committee, effectively pushing forward a 5% or ($27 Billion Dollar) Property tax increase, according to the CGA Office of Fiscal Analysis. “There it is” said Connecticut State Republican Chairman Ben Proto “after the pomp and circumstance over election year gimmicks, Connecticut Democrats have unveiled their true tax-and-spend plan. Forcing municipalities to raise property taxes to fund a Hartford money-grab is wrong, its backhandd, and taxpayers, particularly low income and middle class taxpayers are the
GOP Leaders Kelly, Candelora, Environment Committee Republicans Criticize Democrat Plan to Make Home Heating Oil and Gasoline More Expensive “We call on the people of Connecticut to urge lawmakers to reject this misguided proposal.” Committee Vote Slated for Wednesday Senate Republican Leader Kevin Kelly (R-Stratford), House Republican Leader Vincent Candelora (R-North Branford) and Republican lawmakers on the Environment Committee today released the following statement raising concerns about the Governor’s bill slated to be voted on Wednesday which will make home heating oil and gasoline more expensive and resembles “TCI on steroids.” “Two years ago, Republicans defeated the governor’s push for the Transportation and
GOP Forces Hearing on Proposal to Eliminate Highway Use Tax HARTFORD—House Republicans have used a parliamentary procedure to circumvent Democrat opposition to a bill that would save inflation-weary businesses and residents money by eliminating the new highway use tax (HUT) on heavyweight trucks. Republicans petitioned to raise H.B. 5290, An Act Eliminating the Highway Use Tax, after the Finance Committee’s Democratic leadership refused to even hear it. Republicans on Tuesday secured the required 51 petition signatures to force a public hearing on the bill. “Many members of the General Assembly proposed this legislation on behalf of their constituents, and the
CT Democrats Spend the Week Proposing Reparations, higher Landlord Taxes, & Encouraging Homelessness By this point in the legislative session it has become clear that Connecticut Democrats are hyper-focused on trying to pass ridiculous, partisan, far-left legislation that solves nothing but makes Connecticut even more unaffordable. This week’s insane proposals even included reparations-yes, you read that right; Connecticut Democrats are proposing a racially based direct transfer of wealth, similar to what Democrats did in San Francisco, that would bankrupt Connecticut and drive taxes to outrageously high levels. In addition to this impractical and racially offensive proposal, Democrats also proposed
Democrats Still Believe Parents are Monsters, Introduce Legislation Keeping Parents from Learning about so called “Sensitive Communications between Teachers and Students Remember when Connecticut Democrats posted a meme comparing parents concerned about their children’s education to monsters? Well now they aren’t just calling parents names, they’re attempting to legislate that belief in Hartford. Within the last few weeks, Democrats in the General Assembly have introduced legislation that would: –Take away parental notification/permission for covid shots at twelve years of age. –Keep parents from knowing about communications between a teacher and student (regardless of the student’s age) about sensitive/sexual topics. -“Protect teachers”
Connecticut Democrats are continuing their assault on parental rights in two new proposed bills in the CT House of Representatives. H.B. 6396 (Rep. Palm, 36th District) seeks to prohibit local or regional boards of education from having a say in how an educator teaches certain subjects, including gender, sexuality, race, racism, and climate change. H.B. 6192 (Rep. Keitt of the 134th District, Rep. Johnson of the 143rd, Rep. McCarthy Vahey of the 133rd, and Rep. Leeper of the 132nd) would allow public school teachers to be exempt from FOIA requests pertaining to their conversations with students about sexual orientation,
Dems Move to Silence Parents and Citizens; Give Illegal Immigrants “Right to Housing”, Establish Statewide Rent Control & Housing Authority Jurisdiction After weeks of crazy, out-of-touch proposals from Democrats at the State Capitol, one might have thought that Lego’s announcement that they would be departing from the State of Connecticut would have served as a wake up call, and that we might be seeing serious legislation with an eye to fixing the declining economic situation in the state… but one would be mistaken. Instead this week brought a new round of Far-Left proposals which do nothing for Connecticut citizens and nothing
Thanks to Ned Lamont and Connecticut Democrats, the gas tax is returning incrementally, which began on January 1, 2023. By May of this year, the tax will return to 25 cents per gallon. The gas tax holiday, championed by Connecticut Republicans, was passed due to rising gas prices around the country. The program was approved last March and saved Connecticut residents millions in the midst of the severe effects of Bidenflation. Why It Matters: Ned Lamont and CT Democrats supported the gas tax as part of their election-year gimmicks and now reverse their position on the tax after
The recently released “Twitter Files” posted by journalist Matt Taibbi revealed that in October 2020, the Connecticut Secretary of State emailed Twitter in an attempt to take down “suspicious” accounts.
Why It Matters: This is a prime example of far-left Connecticut Democrats working to subvert free speech in America by secretly colluding with Twitter.
Zoom out: The email from Connecticut’s Secretary of State to Twitter is part of a larger release of the Twitter Files following Elon Musk’s takeover of the social media platform.
- During the 2020 election, Connecticut employed an “election disinformation officer” who was tasked with finding and removing alleged misinformation before it spread.
