Malloy Enabler Ned Lamont Would Continue Connecticut’s Economic Decline

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Republican Governors Association released the following statement regarding Connecticut Democrats selecting Malloy Enabler Ned Lamont as their nominee for governor:

“After nearly eight years of job losses, fiscal chaos, and economic decline under Failed Governor Dan Malloy, Connecticut Democrats have nominated Ned Lamont, an out-of-touch politician who has promised, if elected, to continue Dan Malloy’s failed policies,” said RGA Communications Director Jon Thompson. “Ned Lamont supports raising taxes on working families, wants to impose a costly $32 trillion Single-Payer healthcare scheme, and continue the same job-killing agenda that has proven disastrous, causing GE and Aetna to leave the state. Connecticut desperately needs a governor who will turn the page on the Dan Malloy era, but Ned Lamont would only continue it for a third term.”
