GHIAA sent an open letter to Gov. Lamont this week, urging him to act with urgency to protect vulnerable CT residents from the harm of federal cuts. Of the $500M set aside by the legislature last fall, over 60% remains unspent. Yesterday, leadership announced a plan to carry forward the balance of the fund for use this spring. Let’s keep up the pressure!
