Dan Malloy on Free Trade

Make sure entire world knows: CT is open for business

We have spent the past 13 months setting the stage for this economic revival. Now is the time to commit to making it a reality. In order to make this happen I believe there are three things we need to do.

We need to maintain the fiscal discipline we imposed a year ago. That discipline has made Connecticut a more predictable, reliable, stable place in which to do business. It's given the private sector the confidence it needs to make investments and create thousands of new jobs.
We need to continue to make sure the entire world knows Connecticut is open for business.
We need to reform the public school system that educates our children.

And we need to commit to this vision and implement it--year after year, until we get it right. That's been one of our problems for too long: we're good at making plans, we're not good at sticking to them. Too often we've found ourselves simply careening from idea to idea, with no clear roadmap to guide us. Not anymore. Source: Connecticut 2012 State of the State Address , Feb 8, 2012
