Are you having difficulty finding a job that compensates you fairly for your hard work?
Are you an independent contractor or small business owner tired of being bossed around by a bureaucratic culture full of red tape?
Connecticut’s overall job growth continues to lag behind the nation. According to a 2014 Gallup Poll, almost half of the state’s residents say they want to relocate, citing the lack of good jobs as a primary reason.
FACT: Between 2011 and 2014, Connecticut had a net loss of 44,000 people and $5 billion in taxable income to other states.
