2014 Connecticut Governor's race: on Technology


Tom Foley: No comment on reducing mass transit funding

Foley was short on specifics when quizzed on a number of issues. The Connecticut Post reported that the Greenwich millionaire would not say whether he would reduce mass transit funding, or identify which state regulations he would wish to roll back.

Dan Malloy: Invest in Jackson Labs & Bioscience Connecticut

Gov. Dannel Malloy is facing a scrum of Republicans. In 2014 Republicans are expected to again challenge Malloy on taxes and the size of the state budget, and on Connecticut's business climate, which critics blast as one of the worst in the nation.

Malloy, meanwhile, will point to long-term agreements he has made with state unions and the hundreds of millions of dollars he has invested in Jackson Labs, Bioscience Connecticut, the busway and other economic development initiatives designed to attract or retain new business to the state. Malloy will also likely emphasize that under his leadership the state has been able to eliminate projected spending deficits of hundreds of millions of dollars.
