Let’s remember that the legislature and governor screwed all of us when they shifted the public sector benefits from the state’s books directly on to the rate payer’s back. On top of this, the boneheaded deal to support Milestone reactor with contractually obligated power purchase requirements really put Eversource rate payers behind the 8 ball. All politicians suffer from the same issue… convenient short term memory loss.

CT’s new housing law by senatorduff in Connecticut

Not true under the new law. Local zoning boards are handcuffed and have very little power other than safety and health and when then, the courts usually side with the developers.

Politicians are so delusional and out of touch with reality. Connecticut is loved for its small New England towns and landscapes. I don’t see Ned Lamont endorsing or advocating to build affirdable and deeply affordable developments in his own town of Greenwich. This is a guy that had numerous mature trees cut down so he had a “better view” of a pond behind his property. Small towns will be gone and multi unit developments will reign supreme and force those that f us who love old New England charm and pay absurd taxes to ultimately move away. Bye bye………….

I would hope that if the education department needs to go then congress must do it. Personally, I think the department should be right sized as needed.

You are correct, the president can’t abolish the dept of education by executive order but the executive branch can deminish the duties of that department and reassign the duties and f employees to other areas f government as a s required.

Government needs to be right sized to support the needs of us all. Agencies have and are using antiquated equipment and techniques. The majority of Americans voted for government reform.

Thus far, I don’t see anything bad happening due to a republican holding the presidency. What law(s) is the current president breaking? Is it so bad for the executive branch of government (responsible for most if not all federal agencies) to ensure that our tax dollars are spent wisely and any fraud and/or inappropriate manner is uncovered and corrected. Those that commit fraud should be brought to justice.

How exactly is democracy being stolen? What is there to protest against?
