Tom Foley on Government Reform

Reduce the cost and size of state government

We need a new direction and new leadership that will deliver the opportunities and promising future our citizens want and deserve. We need change that will get Hartford working for us again. We need a plan that will keep businesses and young people from leaving our great state.

I have a plan that will get Connecticut headed back in the right direction. It is a plan that will restore a promising future by focusing on the four things that Connecticut families tell me they care about most and want to see changed. They are:

Bringing Back Jobs and the Economy
Reducing the Cost and Size of State Government
Reducing the Tax Burden on Connecticut Working Families
Changing the Way Business is Done in Hartford
