NORWALK, Conn. U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) highlighted Connecticut funding Monday in a press release concerning the Coronavirus Relief & Omnibus Agreement, sent shortly after the bill passed.
“I’m on the Appropriations Committee to make sure that Connecticut’s priorities are included in the federal budget, and the bill we passed today is a clear win for our state,” Murphy is quoted as saying. “This funding package includes important money for testing and vaccine distribution that will help us combat COVID-19, and direct cash payments and small business assistance to help those in need.”
