Gov. Rell Announces CT's First-Ever Comprehensive Economic Plan

(Sept. 16, 2009) Governor M. Jodi Rell today announced the release of the state’s first-ever Economic Strategic Plan – a detailed, statewide blueprint for keeping and growing jobs, making the state more business-friendly and investing in the infrastructure and technology that will keep Connecticut competitive in the 21st Century.

 

“This plan will shape policy and priorities as we recover from the current economic downturn and as we make our state’s economy second to none in the years ahead,” Governor Rell “The goals are simple: Jobs, jobs, jobs – the same goals I have had from the beginning. We want a vibrant, diverse and safe state, a place where everyone has a chance to enjoy success and the quality of life that makes Connecticut so special.”

 

The full text of the nearly 550-page plan is being posted today on the Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) Web site at www.ct.gov/ecd.
