Dear Neighbor,
As the summer continues and we all begin to travel more, I want to highlight that this session, Connecticut lawmakers voted to extend our state's gas tax holiday through November 30, 2022. We suspended Connecticut's 25-cent-per-gallon tax on gasoline to provide some additional relief at the pump for Connecticut consumers.
In addition, we also extended free public bus service across the state through November 30. Consumers are being affected by historic inflation and surging gas prices, making everyday tasks like bringing the kids to school, driving to work, and picking up groceries more expensive. These measures take steps to relieve some of that financial burden weighing down consumers' wallets.
