Statement from Senator Looney Regarding State Bonding

Today, Senate President Pro Tempore Martin M. Looney (D-New Haven) released the following statement regarding state bonding:

"It is critical for the state to provide essential bonding for municipalities and to continue our commitment to cities and towns. Time after time, Senate Democrats have given urgent priority to providing municipalities with the funding they need for the many services they deliver to Connecticut residents.

"In addition, housing, non-profits who perform many services under contract with the state, economic development, transportation, and higher education are all in need of state bonding in order to keep Connecticut thriving."
