Connecticut’s tax code is regressive. Working- and middle-class families pay more proportionally than the ultra-wealthy. Public services are underfunded, and municipalities rely too heavily on local property taxes.

The solutions:

• Implement a progressive and fair tax structure that fairly taxes those earning over $1 million annually.

• Create a tax system in Connecticut fairer for all, especially working families.

• Modernize Connecticut’s fiscal “guardrails” to allow for smart investments in infrastructure, education, and housing.

• Reduce reliance on local property taxes by increasing equitable state education funding.

• Implement a permanent, and fully refundable Child Tax Credit.
