New User-Friendly
Senate Republican Caucus Website Designed To Help Public
Understand State Budget Process
Senator Rob Kane (R-32), a member of the General Assembly’s
Appropriations Committee, is urging constituents to
learn more about the state budget process by checking
out the Senate Republican Caucus’s new user-friendly
website at www.CTBudgetFacts.com.
“In my opinion, it is more important than ever
for everyone to understand the choices facing Connecticut
as the General Assembly puts together a state budget
for the next two years. Our challenge is to pass a responsible
state budget that funds necessary government programs
and services at a cost the taxpayers can afford. An
important part of that task involves erasing the budget
deficit. I urge everyone with internet access to learn
more about the state budget process by checking out
our new website,” said Senator Kane.
Viewers can directly access the website at www.CTBudgetFacts.com,
or through a link on Senator Kane’s web page on
the Senate Republican Caucus website at www.senaterepublicans.ct.gov.
Features of the new CTBudgetFacts website include a
welcome video by Senator Kane, an interactive budget
presentation, a description of the various budget issues
facing Connecticut now and in the future, and an explanation
of the various budget proposals under consideration.
“The regular legislative session ends on June
3rd, and our new fiscal year begins on July 1st. Connecticut
residents rightfully expect legislators to work together,
and with Governor Rell, to pass a responsible budget.
As always, I urge everyone to share their thoughts and
concerns with me. I can be reached at my legislative
office in Hartford at 1-800-842-1421, or by sending
an e-mail to Rob.Kane@cga.ct.gov,”
said Senator Kane.
