Opinion: Democrats help the well connected, not the middle class

Opinion: Democrats help the well connected, not the middle class By state Sen. Kevin Kelly © Provided by Connecticut Post Connecticut Democrats talk the talk. But they don’t walk the walk. The Democratic state Senate leader said he wants equity in state tax policy and a budget that avoids regressive taxes and user fees that hurt low- and moderate-income families. I agree with that goal wholeheartedly. The problem is state Democrats are doing the exact opposite. They are proposing regressive new taxes on things like gasoline, food and health insurance, at the same time they’ve given tax breaks and bailouts to the most well-connected.

CT Lawmakers Seek To Increase Taxes To Tackle Income Inequality – NBC Connecticut

“For a fair budget that seeks to address the wrongs of our past and bring greater equity to our state,” Gilchrest said. State Rep. Brandon McGee (D-Hartford) said that increasing tax credits will help move the state in the right direction. “Putting money back into the pockets of low and moderate income workers through EITC and reducing the tax burden on families with children,” McGee said. But using the tax code to fight income inequality is not easy and it’s not cheap. “The Democrats even say our budget is in a strong position, but yet they continue to look at the middle class wallet as the solution to every single one of the state’s problems,” Senate Republican Leader Kevin Kelly said

Students, Professors March For More Money For Higher Ed

Gateway Community College Professor Colena Sesanker said consolidations over the years have had an impact. “Costs are adding up, our students are paying for those costs, not just in the actual dollars, but in the reduced services,” Sesanker said. “The money isn’t getting to the classrooms. The money isn’t getting to the students,” she added. She said when teaching positions are vacant they go unfilled but they are hiring administrators. “That means our students aren’t getting services required, but we have lots of people doing fancy things in offices,” Sesanker said. Chikwon Loyd, a senior at Capital Community College, who is the first in his family to go to college, said the state should prioritize education funding.

Lawmakers Debate Carbon Program With Impact At The Gas Pump

If the legislature approves the program, which requires fuel suppliers to buy permits for pollution, it will go into effect in 2023. Fuel suppliers are expected to pass the extra cost onto consumers. “These taxes are the most regressive taxes. They’re going to hit the middle and lower-income harder than they would at the higher echelons,” Kelly said. But Democratic lawmakers argue it s all for a good cause lowering carbon emissions. “Here we are joining together to really combat climate change,” Sen. Christine Cohen, D-Guilford, said. Cohen, who co-chairs the Environment Committee, says they will be putting the money raised from fuel providers toward lowering carbon emissions and investing in things like electric vehicles.
