| "Senate Republicans stand ready to work on
a mitigation plan that brings the state budget back
into balance by reducing the cost and size of state
government. Less than one month after passing a budget
that we all knew was unsustainable, Governor Rell will
once again have to make the difficult decisions the
Democrats have repeatedly failed to make.
"With the news today that unemployment hit 8.4%
and Connecticut lost 6,600 jobs in September, we can
only hope Democrats will finally start getting serious.
The people of the state of Connecticut deserve better."
