After months of negotiation, House Democrats shepherded passage of a bipartisan budget demonstrating that compromise remains the most effective way to govern.
The Danbury delegation secured $14.59 million in municipal aid and $65.35 million through the Education Cost Sharing (ECS) grant for fiscal year 2027.
This is what happens when a delegation works together to do what’s best for all Danbury residents — ensuring our city and our schools receive the maximum level of support.
In addition to the funding for Danbury, the legislature produced a 2027 budget that significantly boosts support for the state’s education system, increases crucial investments in housing and transportation, supports town and city budgets, and more—all while safeguarding the state's strong fiscal outlook, including $1 billion toward paying down long-term debt. Connecticut residents made a call for help in many areas. Connecticut lawmakers heard it and answered in a strong, bipartisan way.
