The legislature’s Finance, Revenue and Bonding Committee approved state income tax cuts Thursday for the poor and middle class and a one-time bailout for restaurants, largely funding them with two tax surcharges on the wealthy and a new levy on digital media ads.
The Democrat-controlled panel also endorsed a revenue package that includes a new highway use tax on large, commercial trucks and new state and municipal sales taxes on recreational marijuana.
But the package, which represents an overall state tax increase of approximately $600 million per year, also would shift more than $1 billion in revenues outside of the spending cap and tap more than $2 billion from one-time sources moves Republicans said lack fiscal transparency and responsibility.

The Connecticut Business & Industry Association today decried a series of tax increases approved by the legislature’s Finance, Revenue and Bonding Committee on Thursday, arguing the new levies will only stunt Connecticut’s economic rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic at a time when the state’s coffers are not in urgent need of more cash.
“Small businesses will bear the brunt of many of these tax increases and it defies sensible logic that there are lawmakers who think further burdening struggling smaller employers is a positive for the state,” said CBIA President and CEO Chris DiPentima. “That’s the same illogical thinking that caused Connecticut to be near the bottom of the nation in recovery from the 2008-2009 recession.”
