Local business leaders, led by the Connecticut Business and Industry Association (CBIA), called on state officials today to halt a new health insurance tax proposal from the General Assembly (SB 842) and Governor Ned Lamont (HB 6447). The tax would significantly raise health insurance costs for any worker or family who gets their health coverage through a business based in the state of Connecticut or through the fully insured marketplace. Connecticut businesses have been among the hardest hit during COVID-19. I am proud to be able to still employ and provide health insurance for our 25 workers, but this proposed tax is another financial burden that my business cannot afford, said Steve Fradianni, who owns a paving business in South Windsor. If our Governor and state assembly members keep hitting us with burdening taxes, especially after the year we have had, it will be harder to keep our doors open.

At 31 years old, Dustin Amore has to wait at least a few more months before he can receive a COVID vaccine.
Amore, a bartender, said he already felt slighted by Gov. Ned Lamont’s new vaccine rollout that does not prioritize essential workers like himself and now he’s even more anxious with the state’s plan to open up restaurants to full capacity.
