Senators Looney & Duff: Republicans Couldn’t Care Less About Rising Prices

HARTFORD – Today, Senate President Martin M. Looney (D-New Haven) and Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff (D-Norwalk) issued the following statement in response to a press conference held by Connecticut Republicans regarding reported instances of mean notes being left on Tesla vehicles.

“Yesterday, Trump said he ‘couldn’t care less’ that the prices of cars and auto parts are increasing by 25%. Today, Connecticut Republicans made clear they don’t care about rising prices in our state either. Republicans have been silent on cuts to programs that keep women and children safe from abuse, life-saving care for veterans, and medical research and cures.

“Republicans care about Elon Musk’s feelings but aren’t worried at all about the people of Connecticut.”
