HARTFORD - Senate President Pro Tempore Martin M. Looney, D-New Haven, and Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff, D-Norwalk, issued the following statement today regarding President Donald Trump’s decision to halt construction on the Revolution Wind project.

“Trump’s decision will crush blue-collar union jobs he pretends to care about and force Connecticut families to shoulder higher electric bills. Unlike him, our residents can’t abuse federal power for personal gain to cover rising energy costs.”
