Ask google, not Reddit. Lol

Both he and his party and the other party were all for it. It was a popular idea at the time. It has turned out to be a bad idea. This really isn’t difficult.

When did /r/Connecticut become craigslist.org?

So because one individual with little to no power in the situation chooses not to battle a house made up of over 100 legislators when they already showed their decision, it somehow passes all the blame to him and his party? Sounds like a pretty nonsensical standpoint to me, considering all the drafting and voting was overwhelmingly carried out by another party.

It stands for wumbo

So, no, Rowland didn’t veto it. Deregulation was an idea that simply didn’t work.

I didn't know that. I have United Illuminating.

This is no solution and just a stunt as they really have no solutions they are willing to support. Take a power related mandatory expense. Take it out of the power bill where only power customer’s pay for it and put it in the state budget where everyone pays for it.

I can’t believe this is a serious proposal.

Sure do. Did the governor actually veto this and the legislature override it? If not, your comment is pointless. You think for yourself, but do you do it well?

You realize a governors veto can be overridden when sent back to the house so if they hold the majority and already passed it once it would just happen again. The governors position doesn't hold much power in those aspects. I don't have blinders because I'm independent and think for myself.

Eversource owns a gas company too(former Yankee Gas). I have eversource for both gas and electric, so there is a lot of work that needs to be done by state.

The Republican governor signed off on it. Could have vetoed. Didn’t. Meaning both parties are complicit. Lose your blinders too.

It's very niche, but anyone who has a pug must go "WooWooWoo!" as they pass it.

I know, I know.

Brachycephaliphiles understand.

Set your belts to wombo to pass

The link was in the news article which you obviously didn't read properly, and damn you are ignorant.

Many uses for water don’t require it to be clean enough for human consumption.

There is a question of which is better. They could configure it so that the taxes that go up disproportionately affect wealthier people, so that poorer and middle class people come out ahead. But I seriously doubt that is what they would propose.

And there is some merit to having a consumption tax on electricity. We want people to be incentivized to save on energy, and taxing energy consumption rewards energy saving investments. While income tax does not incentivize any societal beneficial behavior.

When passing this sign, blow your horn in a long-long-short-long pattern.

Wario crossing.

Bull shit Repubs this does not correct the issues just moves the expense

Everyone talks about Eversource and I get it, but something needs to be done about Southern Connecticut Gas! My gas bill to heat my home this month just went up to $525, the highest I've ever seen it! Just to keep the house at 68 degrees too! And there is no option to try and get your gas from another supplier. It is out of control!

Lots of seafood places closing. Hopefully that makes way for one really good one in the Hartford Area

My bill just went from $201 to $398…. Absolutely awful.
