COALITION SAYS TOUGH BUDGET CHOICES AVOIDED; URGES BALANCED APPROACH TO BUDGET

Better Choices for Connecticut, a statewide coalition advocating for revenue solutions, criticized Governor Rell and her latest budget proposal for failing to make the tough decisions that will make Connecticut more fiscally sound. By using one-time money to plug the hole in fiscal year 2011 and not including revenues as part of the solution, she is simply creating a larger budget deficit for fiscal years 2012 and 2013 that will have devastating effects on middle- and low-income families.
