Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's transition team presented more than 1,800 pages worth of policy recommendations Monday, including sweeping proposals to overhaul education funding, institute universal pre-kindergarten, find new transportation revenues and end the regional tourism district system.
And while Malloy thanked his team's Policy Committee for developing a report that offers guidance his administration will use over the next four years, he reminded members that these goals--though valuable--will be limited by a $3.7 billion budget deficit looming less than six months away.
"It is a new day for the state and for our people," Malloy said. "Sacrifices will be made but strong partnerships will be built."
