Hayes and Courtney’s secret heating tax

Connecticut voters’ high heating bills are about to get even worse thanks to Jahana Hayes and Joe Courtney.

The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes, “The House passed what it calls a “fee” on methane that amounts to a stealth tax on natural gas and everyone who uses it… Producers will naturally pass the cost of the tax along to customers… This is also a regressive tax that hurts low-income families without a financial cushion.”

NRCC Comment: “Jahana Hayes and Joe Courtney are not helping Connecticut voters struggling with high heating bills. Democrats’ massive spending sprees are only making it worse.” –NRCC Spokeswoman Camille Gallo
