Reps. Staneski & Ferraro Slam Governor Malloy’s Veto of Bi-partisan Budget

State Representatives Pam Staneski (R-119) & Charles Ferraro (R-117) condemned the governor’s decision to veto the Bi-partisan state budget that passed the General Assembly on September 16th.


The governor’s veto means that a state budget will not be in effect by the October 1st  Education Cost Sharing (ECS) payment deadline leaving several towns, Milford and Orange to face across the board cuts in municipal aid, education funding, and elimination of core government services.

“I am disheartened that the governor overrode the will of the General Assembly and chose not to sign the budget agreement. By exercising a broad stroke veto and not even considering a line item veto on matters he wanted to have more discussion, he slapped our towns and cities in the face. He could have kept intact the municipal aid and the dollars that our most vulnerable rely on.  The budget that passed after months of work restored our education funding and our other municipal aid,” said Rep. Staneski. “The Governor is now responsible for what happens next: What will towns do now? How much more will the taxpayers be forced to pay? How many people in-need across our community will be hurt? I call on my colleagues in the Senate and House to override the governor’s veto as soon as possible. .”

“Today’s decision by the governor to veto the bipartisan budget solution gives him back control of the state finances, which is bad for all taxpayers,” said Rep. Ferraro.  “We passed a solid bipartisan budget plan earlier this month, but the governor has decided that a budget that fully funds education and reforms government isn’t part of his tax and spend vision. My colleagues and I need to come together again and override the governor’s veto before he can slash education funding to our local communities.”

  1. The extra charges of a government on the residence in the form of general country tax can be eliminate easily with in a seven days according to the rules and regulations of a government,If you write an application with the authentic reasons for a elimination of residence tax and also attached a legal documents of a residence tax pair after that submitted in the government office by the residence tax layers which is helpful for your tax layer to approved the claim of your residence tax in the seven days without any allegations of a government on the application of your residence tax ,Remember don’t write any irreverent reasons in the applications of residence tax you want to submit in the office of government and also don’t attached any illegal or extra document of residence tax which increase the chances to refuse or neglect your claim application ,So keep it in your mind all the instructions and requirements given to you by the tax layer after concerning this kind of matter according to the current policy of government .
