By Keith M. Phaneuf, CT Mirror A few weeks after the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police one year ago, progressive Democrats in Connecticut demanded massive new investments in poor Black and Latinx communities. What they got was an overhaul of police accountability rules but almost no dollars. Neither the Black Lives Matter movement nor the ravages of the coronavirus pandemic were enough to overcome moderate Democrats’ and Republicans’ opposition to the tax hikes needed to sustain big spending increases in education, health care, housing and other core services. But with this week’s anniversary of Floyd’s death, progressives find themselves embroiled in a far more intense battle for at least a down-payment on these investments.
