Connecticut Senators Lead the way for Levying Land

by Joshua Vincent, Executive Director, Henry George Foundation USA/Center for the Study of Economics, joshua at urbantools.org, January 2009

Two bills, one introduced by Senate Majority leader Martin Looney, the other by Senators Andrea Stillman and Andrew Maynard, would permit Connecticut cities to employ land value taxation. Similar bills in the past have been supported by Connecticut’s Homebuilders, the Conference of Municipalities, the Sierra Cub, and others. Anyone interested in a sensible, sustainable and ethical form of taxation is encouraged to lend their support and work to CSE/HGFA and ReNew London to make sure these bills become reality. Education is the key. Contact either organization and we will put you to work!

Connecticut.
