Senate Republicans Unveil $1Point 5 billion tax relief proposal

Senate Republicans have rolled out a $1.5 billion tax relief proposal aimed at cutting income taxes, vehicle property taxes, and electric bills for Connecticut residents. The plan would eliminate the 2 percent income tax bracket, lower the 4.5 percent rate, and reimburse residents for vehicle taxes, while also reducing the paid family leave payroll tax. GOP leaders say the plan uses surplus funds generated under state spending caps and would provide ongoing relief to working families.
