The Day - Progressive legislators to Lamont: Tax the rich and expand support for poor and middle-class

Published February 04. 2021 12:05AM Keith M. Phaneuf, The Connecticut Mirror One week before his next budget proposal is due, 30 of Gov. Ned Lamont’s fellow Democrats challenged him Wednesday to embrace what he strongly opposes tax hikes on the rich and lifting spending limits to invest billions in those most hurt by the COVID-19 pandemic. The “Recovery Champions” coalition not only urged the governor to expand health care for the poor and pump hundreds of millions of dollars more into struggling municipalities but also pledged to fight for these ideals in late spring when Lamont likely needs their votes to pass a budget.

Atlantic Standard Time? Bill would move CT into a new time zone

Atlantic Standard Time? Bill would move CT into a new time zone By Jordan Fenster © Provided by Connecticut Post A group of Connecticut legislators is part of a region-wide push to move the entire northeast of the United States off Eastern Standard Time. If successful, and if other states from New York north go along, Connecticut would use Atlantic Standard Time instead, and do away with Daylight Saving Time in the process. In effect, the region would be on Eastern Daylight Saving Time for all 12 months up from almost eight months now. “I just think it’s a practical means to handle something that we don’t need anymore,” said state Sen. Cathy Osten, D-Sprague.
