Connecticut families are paying more to heat their homes — and Trump’s war is making it worse. CT heating oil is up 86% compared to last year. While CT Republicans stay silent, Connecticut families are left paying the price.

Connecticut ratepayers deserve answers. Eversource’s CEO bragged to investors that the company “shut the faucet off” on Connecticut while families face an 11% increase in their electric bills. What projects were held back? What got cut?

The entire United States added fewer jobs last month than there are seats at Rentschler Field. Every new job in all 50 states, combined, wouldn’t fill a UConn football game in East Hartford. That is what the Trump regime’s chaos means for working people looking for a paycheck.

Higher gas prices have caused Connecticut drivers to pay $1,000,000 more per day. Diesel is at a record high, Trump’s own Fed raised interest rates because inflation is so bad, home heating oil is unaffordable, and the oil supply could be constrained even further because of the illegal Iran War.

Nearly $22 million more at the pump. Nearly $1 million a day. And heating bills could be next. Connecticut families are paying the price for Trump’s war. Where is the outrage from CT Republicans?

In Connecticut, Republicans brag about killing legislation by talking. In D.C., Republicans just cancel the votes. Both result in the same higher costs for you.
