I could not be prouder to be part of this effort, alongside some truly amazing coworkers. When journalists are paid fairly and given a say in decisions that affect them, not only do we benefit, so do our communities. So excited to get to work.

ICYMI: The @CTMirror reported on the huge ($4.1 BILLION) budget reserve that CT now has. “Every month now, we are met with new evidence that shows how Gov. Lamont’s short-sighted fiscal controls are deepening racial, gender, and economic disparities." ctmirror.org/2024/07/23/ct-b…
