Tell Gov. Rell our stories
The state budget is still in dire straits, with revenues still falling. If it weren’t for State employees and the concessions they made in 2009, we’d be in even worse shape. But Governor Rell wants to make further cuts to public services and ask workers to come back to the bargaining table for more givebacks.
What Gov. Rell is forgetting is that those budget cuts have already had a serious impact: they’ve made it harder and harder for public service workers to deliver services that people are counting on.
I’m asking for your help. We need you to show the administration that budget cuts are impacting those critical services — and that her budget cuts really hurt people in Connecticut.
We need to tell Rell your stories. Help us show the governor and her Administration that more cuts will be devastating to the economy and to the lives of regular people.
Please complete one of the attached surveys. They’re quick and easy, but adding all the stories together will demonstrate in clear terms to the Governor how slashing programs and services harm working families in Connecticut every day and slow down economic recovery.
